Here is my tutorial on how to create beveled buttons. You can see these on Microsofts website, and in some skins for Windows. Very cool for your web page. This tutorial was written for Paint Shop Pro (PSP), but can probably be used for other versions as well.

Tutorial - Step 1 Bevel Buttons Paint Shop Pro (PSP) tutorial

Create a new image , 200x200 with a light blue background(#6598CB). Now create a new raster layer , and name it button. Then, using the circle selection tool create a circle, starting in the middle of the canvas.





Tutorial - Step 2 Bevel Buttons Paint Shop Pro (PSP) tutorial

With the selection still active, click on the flood fill , and fill the selection with white. Then contract the selection by going to Selections | Modify | Contract , and enter 15. Press Delete, or fill this selection with the same light blue you used before(#6598CB). Finally, get your original selection by going to Selections | Modify | Expand , and entering 15. You should have a white ring that looks like mine.





Tutorial - Step 3 Bevel Buttons Paint Shop Pro (PSP) tutorial

Now is the hard part. With the selections still active, add an inner bevel with these settings .





Tutorial - Step 4 Bevel Buttons Paint Shop Pro (PSP) tutorial

Next, make a new raster layer, and name it "drop shadow". With the selection still active, go to Effects | 3D Effects | Drop Shadow , and enter these settings.
