Hi. My name is Steve, and I am a button glutton. I admit it. I have a
weakness for buttons. Buttons, buttons, buttons. Why? Because I have
discovered Crystal
Button, and now I can't stop making buttons!
Creating buttons for web sites can be a pain if you want to create
interactive/animated buttons. Creating hover buttons, multi-state buttons, and
even banner buttons all require some graphics skill. Crystal
Button enables you to create fantastic 3D buttons with just a few
clicks.
Now I have reviewed a few similar tools in the past, and while each of
these tools were good, Crystal
Button takes the creation process a few steps further, enabling even
the most graphically-challenged individual to create sharp, smart-looking
buttons.
To use the program, you simply start by selecting a button
from any of the beautiful templates included. Yes, you could start from
scratch, but why would you?
You can alter the button's text, lighting (to create the 3D
depth effect), material, shape, deformation, size and background color. By
making subtle changes, you can create a family of buttons which can be used to
create multi-state hover buttons or a complete navigation bar (of course, you
still need to know how to code and embed the buttons into your web page).

See the clear, reflective, brilliant color and depth of the
sample buttons above? All I did was select a ready-made template, and then I
began altering its attributes. No skill required.
Crystal
Button only costs $24.95. You can download a free trial here.
