Transcription of How To Create Free Buttons & Add Them To Your Website
In this video I’m going to show you how
you can create free buttons
for your website and then how you can
actually put it on your website so we’re
going to use a free program called cool
text is that cool text.com / 2 buttons
and then there’s a bunch of different
styles you can see and you can just pick
the one you want
let’s just go with a plane button and
then we’ll just say continue course you
can put whatever text you need on here
here you can pick your font just click
on here and that brings up a bunch of
different fonts so you go into the
different categories and you see the
fonts there you don’t like that one you
can continue on so there’s just lots and
lots of choices here so this find one
that he’ll want to use on your site
let’s just pick this one and then you
have your text size here so that’s 20 .
text what you want in boulder at Alex
okay and then here we have our outline
thickness color and then we can see
shadows and the color the shadow and
action y offset that’s just the offset
from the edges and we have our button
shapes down here let’s go with this
shape and then again you have different
styles here so let’s do a horizontal
gradient as you see there’s lots of
other things you can do a line thickness
and color you have your shadow types and
color any effects a mouse-over effect if
you want to make it a spot when your
mouse goes over it and then the with
Kate this is in pixels
okay so we just pick our width and
height here now you click render button
and I can previous so here’s the image
and this is when you mouseover you see
here that’s what it does
ok now here you can download the image
let’s just download it to a folder I’m
going to use that I have my website in
okay so this is my test site with a
website usually have an images folder
sometimes you have another folder inside
here i’m just going to put it right
there is my button and it has some HTML
code here that you can use for the
mouseover effect
ok so just select this code and let’s do
a copy and let’s stick it in notepad is
open notepad here paste it in here
because we will need this to put on our
website Matt make sure you download both
images see this is the mouseover effect
here and this is the image for the most
over effect and this is the regular
image so we download this image was
download this image will save it to the
same spot
ok now we’re going to do is we’re gonna
go and put the image on our site i’m
going to use a web editor called
composer which is free
KMP özeti are like you see here you can
just do a search for that install now
let’s open the website that we want to
edit
ok and let’s just we’ll just put it
right at the bottom here and this is
just for demonstration purposes so it
doesn’t really matter now what we want
to do is grab that HTML code that we
just had just grab this
remember don’t rename the images if you
do then you’re going to have to rename
them in here as well
ok and then right here we’re going to
insert HTML and just paste this in here
now the only thing we are going to need
to do is put the images folder in front
of here because that’s where we loaded
it so we put images / in front of the
first PNG image and then when we find
the next PNG image will be the same
thing here so its images / and then
again here anywhere you see a PNG file
name click insert all right let’s save
this now let’s open it up go down to the
bottom for our mouse on it
you see there’s the most over effect ok
now one more thing usually with a
continue button you want to go somewhere
so click on it and click link here and
then where we want to go
so we’ll say Google got top . com click
ok ok once alternate text here just do
not use it
ok let’s just go to the link again make
sure this is correct and then while
you’re in here you do link is to be
opened and then in a new window if you
want otherwise it’s going to open in the
same window let’s save back to our site
and refresh now there’s almost over
let’s click continue and after Google we
go
ok so that’s how you can create some
nice buttons for free how to add it to
your website
