My eyes are off a bit.  Earlier something I *knew* was light grey was 
appearing light pink.  Warrantee expired years ago and no user servicable 
parts, closed source, and so on... ;)

For me, that one's the best of the lot.  I'm wondering if the rectangle 
should be centered on the monogram or if it should remain as it is with 
the top of the text.

The W3C XHTML and CSS buttons seem to have a two-tone border and almost a 
drop shadow for the monogram.  Would a drop shadow for the rectangle and 
the circumference of the monogram be an improvement or make it too busy?
