A wyrd to generate rectangular buttons using the GD library.
SYNOPSIS
<BASENAME::GDButton name="pushme" src="/DESCRIPTION
GDButton produces a rectangular button with given text using the GD library. It can produce either image input or img tags, as requested.
GDButton uses it's membership in the Apache::Wyrd::Site::Widget class to track changes and decide when the output file should be regenerated. Note: GDButton internally draws itself at 5x the regular size and scales down in order to make a more aesthetically pleasing final result.
