W3Schools 80x15 button

[Jonas]

Ok, so I made a couple of 80x15 buttons for w3schools.com, because that's the size I like best (also for validation buttons, never liked the yellow w3c.org 88x31 versions). And so, I'm curious: Which button do you like best?Examples of alternative (80x15) validation buttons:http://w3schools.invisionzone.com/index.ph...findpost&p=1122

First one is better because it's easier to read the text.

Darn good point what vshris said . By the way, I think that if the background was... how do you say... light brown, beige, fown? Anyway... such a background would be more in W3Schools theme. Of couse if such is used, it would requre black text too.

[Jonas]

Really? Light brown/beige? I feel the w3schools.com colors are mostly red (maroon), and gray.http://www.w3schools.com/The dice of course, comes from the favicon.

I don't find any of them particularly easy to read Jonas.I also looked at the link you posted earlier in this thread and thought that all of those images were easier on the eye.http://w3schools.invisionzone.com/index.ph...findpost&p=1122 yellow and black one is best

Yeah, well, I tried to follow w3schools colors a bit. Also, to my defence, the buttons are made in MS Paint, and so it was very difficult making the text readable with the text writing options in Paint. I made/modded a lot of buttons really:http://www.home.no/jvelde/example/icons/

Out of them all i found this colour scheme to work best: http://www.home.no/jvelde/example/icons/w3schools.pnghaha "Paint" say no more!! you need to get a copy of elements

Yeah, I think that one worked well too, particularly with their choice of already having green buttons for larger size:http://www.w3schools.com/about/about_linking.aspBut they can't use that, because it can look like they're saying they're part of w3c (the logo I snipped a bit ), and that's not desirable.

Rubber out the W3 bit, copy the dice over and make it green?Like:

Yeah. I did consider that a bit, but it looked ugly in my head (green/red clash), and I never made the button. Still haven't made up my mind on whether or not it's ugly or if it works.

[Jonas]

I added scott100's option as well, after deciding that it could work after all... :)Should I change your vote scott?

[scott100]

I never originaly voted Jonas cause i felt it was like picking the best of a bad bunch I have voted now of course, not that my decission was biased in any way, i'm the rank outsider,
