I've been looking for a good way to make nice buttons for a long time now. I just found something that looks pretty good: freebuttons.org/index.html

Lets you modify all the colors (so we can match our website theme)
Includes Rollover effects. It even sets the rollover color automatically. ( I took a dark red background button which had a light red "mouse over" effect color and changed it to blue. The program automatically changed the background color to light blue).
Inserts the code right into HTML of the page.
Uses CSS (which is good and bad. I'm not sure how well it works in older browsers)
Free version that's pretty powerful. Paid version has more themes for just

bestattendance - In addition to the Jirox.net site Kevin Mark suggested, try Da Button Factory. The interface is a little less finicky.

I don't know what this has to do with web 2.0, but CSS buttons are fairly straightforward to make. (That's their advantage over image buttons.) Just design the style for a single button and apply to all buttons of that class. If you want to use the same style of buttons across multiple sites, just copy and paste the code and change the colors. Unless you have a hundred different button styles, it shouldn't take you more than a minute or two.

No script is going to be able to automatically determine what style or color of buttons best suits your layout. So you'll still need to pick the colors yourself. I'm not sure how a script will speed that up.

And why are you designing buttons in Firefox anyway? It's a lot easier to pick out colors (and button style) in a real graphics program while you're designing the layout and just copy and paste the color code into the stylesheet.

Try this: jirox.net/AsButtonGen/ It's an in-browser Flash application that lets you create Web 2.0 buttons and export them as PNG files.
