I have had some questions from clients asking for information on how to add a ´grab my button ´widget on their blogs for example...
So here it goes...This is my first tutorial, and I would appreciate it if you found it helpful to leave a comment!
First you need a button... ( of course i can design it for you too ;-)
Then you need to upload your button to a host site for example Photobucket ( this is the one i use ).
This way your button gets a direct URL...
Now you need to add a HTML widget to
Choose add gadget, choose html
Choose add gadget, choose html
Put in the name “Grab My Button” in the title, or something else if you want a different title
Now paste the following code :
<center><a border="0" href="WEBSITEURL" target="_blank"><img src="IMAGEDIRECTLINKURL"/></a>
<textarea rows="6" cols="20">
<a border="0" href="WEBSITEURL" target="_blank"><img src="IMAGEDIRECTLINKURL"/></a>
</textarea></center>
Replace the ¨WEBSITEURL with your own website url, and the IMAGEDIRECTLINKURL with the direct link url which you can find here at photobucket :
Now click on save and voĆla !
Now you have a button, and a place for people to copy your button code, so they can paste it on their pages...
