Over on RPG Mall, they have the option of supplying a button which is entered into a regular rotation with other buttons as a way of advertising a game (essentially a mini banner ad).

I put one up (because it would be silly not to) but it's pretty crude (basically I hacked it out of the cover) because I have no mad graphix skillz.

The button needs to be a jpg or gif 120x60 pixels (and obviously something identifiable as taking people to the Universalis page).

Anyone who wants to flex their cool design powers in creating me a button superior to mine would be welcomed.

Does it need to come "buttonized", with the 3d look applied, or does that happen automatically at the site?

None of the buttons have a 3d effect.  Its actually more of a mini banner than a button.  The official RPGMall term for it, however, is button...which is probably motivated more by the size of it than appearance.

You can see it on the RPGMall page on the right above the "Hot Sellers" list.

After sending you a button of my own design (and producing a 3d version) It suddenly occured to me after seeing the button on rpgmall that you migh want one that looked like your existing book cover design....

So with that in mind just what is the font that you use for the words on the book cover...?

Valamir has seen fit to use at least one of the buttons I have made for him for RpgMall.  This is my first actual (unpaid ) commision (does an open solicitation count as a commision?) ,anyway to see the rest of them go here:

Please note the 'pink galaxy' buttons are shown in their 3d version but I made 'flat' versions for them too
