The JavaScript Source: Image Effects : Smooth Image Buttons

General

With this script your buttons can have up to four states: none, over, down, and up. This makes the button feel more real than a simple mouseover. In addition, the different button states are all part of the same background image.

Four different colors of test buttons.?

Did you say toolbar?
