Dumb Question: gray buttons forever?

Is there anyway for me to change the colour of a button or am I stuck with only gray?
 
You can have buttons any colour you like . . . as long as 'you like' grey.


The fudge fix, however, is to have a label of the desired colour and bearing the text that you want. Then OVER that place a transparent button.
The thing appears to the user as a coloured button.


QED.

Hi!

You can use the button's picture property to actually change its color. This will work if you want an actual picture on the button instead of words. If your button will have words the workaround suggested by LittleSmudge will be easier to implement.
