How to make a blog button for your blog.

I know a few people who have been having trouble trouble making Blog buttons for there blog, due to the coding me included until i found a site that would generate the code for me.

First off you will need a photo or some other graphics or logo.
Once you have your photo, graphics or logo sorted you will need a photo editing software program i.e Photoshop, Gimp etc. Gimp is a free software download.

Once you have your photo editing program sorted you can then mess around with different effects to customise your photo or whatever you decide to use for your button. When you have it to your liking resize it i think about 125px X 125px is the right size so it doesn't look out of place in your sidebar.

Then upload it to Photobucket or some other photo hosting site i always use photobucket, you need this hosting site so you can get the image url.

Than go to this site http://www.mycoolrealm.com/sandbox/gbgen/ enter your blog name, photo url from photobucket or whatever program you use and your blog url. You can preview your button before generating the code.

And then you will have your code to paste into your sidebar.

This is my button that i done.

You could do something more fancy but I'm just trying to get used to photo editing. I hope that helps people out.
