Ya, I did! Thanks! I've been wanting to do this for a while, but I didn't know how. What I did was google search instructions and found this tutorial: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/blogger/thread?tid=58a78fc224e7fe32&hl=en
But before you go there: google search free graphics + (whatever-youre-intrested-in) and copy/save that image to your desktop. Make sure it doesn't have a logo already on it, and for copyright's just make sure it's free. I searched: free graphics + paintbrushes, and free graphics + frames. THEN--go to Picasa (it's FREE and it's an editing program, SUPER easy to use)...click "add text" choose your font, and size, then save that image to your Picasa album. THEN--click & hold the click on your image, and put it in a new internet window. That is your BUTTON's URL. NOW...you can go to that tutorial, and just cut and paste that equation, (enter your URL & the button's URL) put it into your blog post...and every step of the way, click "preview" to make sure it's showing up. Once you've posted your blog post of the scroll bar with the image (both will show up with that one equation)..make a NEW post, and try out your links. MAKE sure they work, and link back to you. :) I hope this helps! It took me a few hours to be honest, I'm not computer savvy! :) lots of trial and error and seeing little codes and trying to find what I did wrong! but it works now! -Brittany

I'm impressed! Did you design these yourself? So cute. I've been wanting to do this for my blog but just don't have a clue how...
