Great job. The buttons look great for such minimal effort. Suggestions for next steps:

1. Add an easy way to get hover and pushed states for buttons. Basically, provide some clever defaults that allow the user to get all 3 at once with minimal work.

2. Put in a paypal or tip jar link (it can't hurt, right?)

3. Add a pretty attribution link, "Buttons by Da Button Factory" or something.

Thanks for your advice.

1. yes, it's in my mind, it will be the big step towards the "version 2"

2. and 3. it may come ;-)

I don't know if he meant this too but I'd be great to add to the Examples section, a PayPal "Donate" button.

I don't like the standard one, but I'd want users to know it's Paypal. But I don't know if using their logo is be infringement, but you could still use a PayPal-like logo.

I don't like the word "donate", but I'm not sure how that change would effect users actions; that's been the standard for a while. But I like "contribute" and "support".
