First take a tour of Image Composer

Open the Button Wizard and create some buttons 

• Edit the shape of your buttons

• Choose the font for your button labels

• Change the color and texture of your buttons

Once you have created a button using the Button Wizard, you might want to exert more control over the look of the button than the Button Wizard allows. 

You can use the Button Wizard to make preliminary decisions about the look of your buttons, then use other features of Image Composer to modify your buttons.

• Edit a blank button 
• Use the Effects palette to dye the button
• Add text to a button
