Button stealer

I would like to become a button stealer, having buttons galore on the sidebar of this blog. Can anyone tell me how to embark on my life of crime?

Not sure if this helps, but I'll give it a shot. For example, I went to the Harlot's website. Click on the button you want and download it to your computer. Now, once you have your gif file on your computer, you'll need to post the file somewhere on the net. There are two ways that I've done it...one is posting the file to a Flicker account, which is free and a great way to show off pictures. The other is easier...do a draft post in Blogger and upload the image from your desktop. Copy the url from the upload and paste it into your template. The html is a bit hard to read sometimes, but I found a spot near the end where I noticed a "Powered by Blogger" button and reapeated the same code over but with the new harlot url.

Hope that helps.
