Buttons
Making buttons can seem daunting, but it's really not. It's easy enough to make decent looking buttons using just your Google apps.

The Cropping-mask tool is especially useful, particularly if you are using images off the net for your button (free to use). The mask tool allows you to crop an image into any autoshape, which can give your button the look you want (Square images are boring!).
