nadger Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 hi i help run a girls football club in the uk, i have just had a website made but its a little basic. i have looked at several web buttons tutorials on here but i was hoping to make some football related buttons. the only problem is i dont know where to start :oops: so i have a couple of questions.. 1. does anyone know of either already made ones or a tut to make some 2. does anyone fancy making some or writing a tut that i could follow (im a complete beginner, and i do mean beginner) thanks for reading everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 Feel free to browse quickly the tutorials section, as the search tool is a little broken (due to various reasons...). Quote No. Way.

Mr Frojo Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 The seach is kinda working now. I get a couple results when searching for stuff. Just browse the tutorial section and try some stuff that looks cool. Quote I'm still alive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cjmcguinness Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 Here's all the Web Browser button tutorials I could find... Simple Round Glass Buttons Gel Style Browser Buttons Making Glass Buttons Vista Blue Button Create Vista-like Glass Buttons Glass Button Windows Vista Start Button Neon Buttons Engraved Buttons If you find one style that you like, you can insert images from certain fonts, like webdings (or try searching for a football related font in dafont.com that you can use). Here's a couple I quickly put together based on two of the button tut's I produced... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david.atwell Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 You could download the Hexagrid plugin. That would allow you to make some pretty simple footballs (we call them "soccer balls" over here, so I had to edit this post before I submitted it :-) ) Then use Shape3D to make it a ball. Just a thought. Quote The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior... A nameless, terrible thing, soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies. The most feared being in all the cosmos. And nothing could stop it, or hold it, or reason with it. One day it would just drop out of the sky and tear down your world.Amy: But how did it end up in there?The Doctor: You know fairy tales. A good wizard tricked it.River Song: I hate good wizards in fairy tales; they always turn out to be him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
