Draw out a nice size that you would like for your button. It should look like the one
on the left.
Click on the flood fill tool and fill the retangle with white and then go to effects -
plugins - flaming pear - primus.
I choose the third preset and moved the slider all the way to the
left so that it was at a 5. You can play and see what you like. After you are done click
ok.
Go to selections - select none. Now is the time to either save your button as a psp file
or you can tube it. The purpose of this is so that when you want to use your button again
you don't have to keep making it.
Ok now add a new raster layer and click on the text button. Now click on your button
so that we can add some text to it.
I used the these settings:
Font: Black Chancery
Size: "16" points
Antialias: Checked
Floating: Checked
You can use bold if you like. I prefer a thinner font for my buttons.
Go ahead and click ok when you are done.
Now position your text so that it is centered within your button. Right click to set it.
Now go to layers merge - merge visible. Go to edit copy - edit paste as a new image and
save your button as a gif and your done!!
