Take these free button creators for a spin!
Hey there!
I hope you've had a good week or so since my last email :)
I'm still a bit behind because I'm not fully recovered from the post-shingles-fatigue...
Which I've just realised could be abbreviated to posh-fat... No? Just me?
Ahem... Moving swiftly on...
One of my websites seems to be under attack today from one or more bots...
Since about 5.30 this morning there have been 28 (and counting) different IP addresses locked out...
I guess maybe because WordPress recently updated to version 3.7... I can't say why for sure...
But it's definitely irritating me a bit.
Make that a lot.
I've set Wordfence to immediately lock out any IP address that tries to login with a non existent username, just to be extra safe.
They get locked out for 30 days too. Tee hee!
You might want to be extra vigilant with your sites too and make sure you've got your security plugins set up to swiftly lock out any offenders.
Anyway, I wanted to let you know about a couple of sites I came across where you can create your own buttons.
For freeeeeee! :)
The first one lets you create either an image or CSS button code. Be aware that you may lose the benefits of any changes in font if you opt for CSS.
The following button was made with the site in just a few clicks of the mouse. Not bad huh?
Click on it to try Da Button Factory.

| | Did I mention it's free and there's no opt-in either?
The other option is called Button X - just like the professor in the X-Men! Not sure it has any amazing telepathic superpowers, but it does allow you to create a mean button :)
Not sure if I can get CSS to work in this email, but here's a screen cap of the button in all its glory :)
You can click it too! |
| | Oh and decide on the button style before making any adjustments because you'll lose them when you click on a new style.
That's all for today. I'm off to do some Facebook niche research. Wish me luck :)
To your success!
