I am a novice and have decided to use WordPress to create my own website. So far I have really enojoyed my journey and love how my webisite is shaping up. I am however trying to find out how I can create a large 3D button similar (ACT NOW) to the one shown on the website. Any ideas or plugins that will allow me to setup such a field on my homepage will really help.
]]>The specific process of creating a button with an image can vary based on your specific plugins. I would recommend watching a few tutorials on YouTube that demonstrate using an image as a button. Hopefully this will allow you to find one that will work with your setup and desired application. Good luck!

An interesting alternative would be to use image sprites. Search for “image sprites” for more on this approach. What’s interesting is you can seamlessly change images when a user hovers over the link/image area, perhaps the button illuminates. When the user clicks, you can swap in a depressed button image.
Depending on your need, clicking a button does not need to navigate somewhere else. It could instead invoke a JavaScript function that puts up a modal or otherwise changes something on the current page.
