First, can a few people check my paypal button and make sure it looks ok in different browsers please.

Second, I am using the basic merchant account on paypal as I doubt the site will ever do more than 2 purchases a week so the basic account should be fine for this shouldn't it? Side note on this after reading some threads, this isn't a primary business of any sort, this is a site we use to promote my wife's art and sell if for a descent little profit so we don't depend on any type of revenue from this site at all.

I apologize if this is a dumb question, this is my first site I have ever done work on myself so this is all new to me.

Thanks,

Steven

It works fine for me but honestly it took me a moment to find it, as it didn't look like a "button". Sometimes I think payment buttons should be a nice square button with Buy Now to make it simple and straightforward.

I decided against the standard button to stick with the overall flow and design of the website as I don't think the amount of possible sales from the site is going to offset the visibility of the standard button.

I know that may sound stupid, but she has gotten 5 pieces on loan in a gallery and a featured artist spot in a paper newsletter from the site as a visual source and I was concerned that standard button would throw the whole look off.:o

Also, thank you for the input:)
