I don't think he knows where to look.  Also I am developing in 2003 so my
options may be more limited than in 2010 or 2013.

Has he actually played around with the built-in options available, e.g...
- option to have caption as well as picture;
- different shapes for command buttons;
- coloured button borders;
- shadow / glow / bevel special effects;
- background gradients;
- hover/pressed colour options.
etc.

It is surprising that he can't find something he finds sizzly!

Regards
Steve

Dear List:

A client writes: "I would like to try and make the various buttons more
three dimensional looking.  Examples from Apple are in Exhibit K.  Can we do
something like this?"

He's looking to give the command buttons a little sizzle.  He's considering
making the app I wrote to run his business into a commercial app.

Any ideas?
