  11. It's pretty simple to make your own button! Just take a picture you love (that you have permission to use), add some text, make sure it's square (about 150x150) and presto! Button! There's plenty of tutorials on adding an html grab box, just google it :)

  79. Thanks for the chance and the choice :)
    As for your button, fortunately or unfortunately, you can learn how to do anything on the Internet. Maybe you could try making one yourself. If that doesn't work out, you can ask bloggers whose buttons you like for references.
