Credits

The Enhanced Website Button Maker was inspired by the Button Maker by Adam Kalsey, but I wanted one with more features like different fonts, etc.
The fonts used in this script come from various sources: Silkscreen, augie, movieola titletype, pookie, Olde English, and Calligrapher. Thanks to all their authors for sharing these nice fonts!
I spent too much time browsing the Steal These Buttons. If you want to share the buttons created on this page, use their upload form.
The color chooser is the Tigra JavaScript Color Picker.
