Daniel, thanks for this great site; it is very helpful. I notice that in the 5-Minute Website tutorial, you suggest making buttons using the rounded rectangle tool, whereas in the How To Make Web Buttons tutorial, you suggest a more laborious method. Using the simpler rounded rectangle tool, I am having trouble putting a gradient across the button that I've made; when I try and do so, I get an error message saying that the layer I'm working on is not editable. I am certain that this is a fundamental issue that I don't understand and probably relates to the drawing process. Please explain. Thanks. Kevin.
