I stumbled upon http://www.cooltext.com/ and thought I would share it here on ActiveRain.  Its not anything fancy but it is an easy web tool that will allow you to create cool text graphics, buttons and fonts.  You can then use them in your blog posts as signatures or other fun text.  Best of all its FREE.  Following are a few text graphics I quickly created using http://www.cooltext.com/

Thanks, Misty!  That IS cool!  I just finished writing a blog and doing most of it on Publisher so that the writing/font was not quite so boring!

Love it Tina!  Cool!

Debe - your signature is very classy.  My guess is you did that in another graphic program??  Did you scan in your real sig and make it into an image?  However you did it, it looks nice.

Hello Carol - After you create the image you will need to download it to your computer.  You can then upload the image you downloaded to your blog and website.  As for your email - you will need to upload the image to a public web location such as your website and then can copy/paste the image that is on your web server into your email.

How do I add a cool text button to my email signature, plus link it to a webpage (such as my listings, etc.)? I have been trying to figure this out for hours! I am sooooo confused.

This was the next thing to try to figure out on my list.  I just wrote a blog on how to create a signature, but wanted to know about buttons and cool fonts. You've taken some of the research time that I would have spent trying to figure out how to do this stuff.  Thanks so much!
