[Noisebridge-discuss] donate button on homepage

[John Ellis]

Jeffrey,

Actually, no it isn't. The classic way is to use a transparent "button"
with a background. Wrap in a <a href> tag and set the css accordingly. I'll
take a look, and see if I can make it work.

At risk of being a smart ass. What style of payment button would you find
more appropriate.

-John

PS: Yes, I was around at the tail end of the pre-css html eyesore web era
with flashing text etc.
