I agree with Eric. An image is not a button – it’s a picture of a button. The rendered label is not text, it’s a picture of text. If this site was serving modular, reusable CSS code and images to style existing, semantically-defined buttons then it would be peachy and keen. What it’s actually doing, though, is defeating the purpose of good markup and clean style/content separation.

Buttonator is not about mid 90â€™s online button creation

Oh, but it is!
Definitely.

Why not just make a button or link element with the desired text and a CSS background image? Make a class for such buttons and it’s easier than building each button in a web page…

No kidding. Do we really want to encourage using images for buttons?

Cool! A single, simple idea that is very well executed.

Well Done!

hehe – our corp. content filter thinks this site is porn and won’t let me see it. These guys might want to think of a different domain name! Anyway, the idea as presented on ajaxian seems silly enough that it might actually catch on. The darnest things can happen you know…
