You won't find these on that page, but they are my favorites and ones that I use:

This one is the background for the Whatpulse stats banner that some members display in their signatures, but you could put any text you want on it:

Unfortunately, my graphic skillset is that of an elementary kid, otherwise I'd help create some new ones.

One of the things that i'd love to see is a logo that donators can put on their website that says something reflectoing the idea that donations to the site actually help fund software development.

"I Fund Software at DonationCoder.com"
or how about
"I Fund Freeware at DonationCoder.com"
or
"I Fund Software Development at DonationCoder.com"
or something similar.

Should we have a logo development contest?

Here's a try... what's a standard size for such a button?

i think it should be as small as possible so people actually feel like putting it on their web page.

Don't forget:
  • Email
  • Tag Lines
  • Forum Signatures
  • Can SMS's have footers?  ;)

It's clickable isn't it? What page should it open?

Would be neat to have something for our blogs!

I gave it a shot.

Far from a gfx-wiz, but it's fun anyway :)

btw, I can't seem to find a good font for a button this size. Any suggestions?

id say actually that the font on your button looks pretty good for that size.

Yes, it's readable and looks ok, but I think the button could look better with another font. Nothing I'll spend too much time on though :)

Have you tried a pixel font?

For tiny crisp text they are often the way to go.

Just make sure you use your chosen font at the correct size - shown on the right at Da Font. :)

Yup.

Here's one with another font:
