Bloggiesta Button Mini-Challenge

There were a lot of mini-challenges for Bloggiesta, and it took me awhile to find one that I wanted to do. Eventually I settled on Designing Your Own Buttons/Banners from SMS Book Reviews.

To make a button, I ended up using Adobe Photoshop CS2 on my Macbook rather than internet-based tools. I like how everything turned out for the most part:

<a href=”<a href="https://csilibrarian.wordpress.com/&#8221" rel="nofollow">https://csilibrarian.wordpress.com/&#8221</a>; _mce_href=”<a href="https://csilibrarian.wordpress.com/”><img" rel="nofollow">https://csilibrarian.wordpress.com/”><img</a> border=”0″ src=”<a href="https://csilibrarian.files.wordpress.com/2011/01/csilibrarian1.gif&#8221" rel="nofollow">https://csilibrarian.files.wordpress.com/2011/01/csilibrarian1.gif&#8221</a>; _mce_src=”<a href="https://csilibrarian.files.wordpress.com/2011/01/csilibrarian1.gif&#8221" rel="nofollow">https://csilibrarian.files.wordpress.com/2011/01/csilibrarian1.gif&#8221</a>; /></a>

I need to get a better and more book-related image eventually both in terms of the button and my banner. Ah well. I found it useful to learn how to do the coding for a text box, and all of this will also come in handy when I decide to make some Reading Challenges of my own later in the year. Ole!
