On: Show HN: Like Button for Hacker News

It's impressive how lossy-compressed that PNG image is. The button artwork really needs some love...

Also, the text beside the button could well be center aligned vertically.

You bet! Let's think of the current version as a mock-up :)

I can mock up a few for you if that helps? Then we can let people "hnLike" the button to see what people prefer? Ill keep adding more to the set throughout the day.

^ edit: these now include the buttons from acous too! :)

Hopefully I'm not being rude, but I thought I might try my hand at some as well.

edit: I can't reply below yet, but I think I'm done at 4 so feel free to incorporate them into a sheet!

Nice, Perhaps we could put them all onto a single sheet? Have a submission deadline, then voting time?

I like the second one better, its crisper. Font-size could do with a pixel less?

[dmbass → RobertHubert]

I imagined something like http://dl.dropbox.com/u/408087/hn/button.png

[acous → dmbass]

That makes way more sense :) I just added an imitation to my post below.

[sbashyal → RobertHubert]

Let's do it!

[RobertHubert → sbashyal]

Awesome, Ill keep updating the url and then Ill activate all the buttons when I think I have a fair amount to choose from :)

Feel free to keep refreshing the ^URL to watch my progress, Ill upload each one as I make'em.

absolutely, there are alignment issues as well
