I don't have much, if any, graphical skills. Nor do I have much of anything in the way of graphical design programs. So I turn to the gifted hands of our DreamViews artists.

What I would like is this: an image that can be used as a button. It will be used repeatedly in a vertical menu that links to various sites on my website. It'll be something like this:

Home Page
Ajax Chat Room
Project 1
Project 2
About the Author

and so on. I would like it to be gradient green, starting at #008000 (which I believe is 0, 128, 0 in RGB notation). I'd prefer it to get lighter as you go down, but if it gets lighter until the center then gets darker towards the bottom, that's also cool. Lastly, it would also be wide enough that there would be a few pixels between the first and last letter of the link and its respective side of the button image, although if that needs tinkering I'm sure I can play with the CSS code.

Thank you!
