Gimp and blog buttons

Now I am really becoming sophisticated. Between what my husband has taught me using Gimp and some great tutorials I found on Mommy Moment, I now have a blog button that I am thrilled with!! Check it out:





Pretty cool huh? I think that is all the technical learning I will want for a while!! But all in all, I am very pleased with how it turned out. MUCH better than the first one I attempted...AND it matches my blog!

**Update**

I have now designed a button for my other blog! What do you think?

  2. Thanks Heidi! I'm learning as I go with Gimp. It's confusing and not the most user-friendly...but you really can do A LOT!! Maybe I'll try to post some instructions on how to do some things in Gimp once I feel more comfortable with it.
