Nowadays they can be used for pretty much anything. But they're pretty good if you're exchanging links with someone so anyone visiting their site will see your site's pixel button which is more attractive than a normal link.

These buttons are really eye-catching, they give your website a good look and are very cool ..... and they can be achieved without any Photoshop help .... that's cool.
And the best part is that they come easily to you, you can get many tutorials on web you can cerate

1. If you don’t have any bitmap fonts, go to dafont.com and download 04b03b bitmap font. So start off by typing out the text you want onyour button. Set the text to size 8 and the anti-aliasing method to”none”. Then add a stroke layer style to the text with the followingsettings:

2. Using the Rounded Rectangle Tool, set to a 2px radius, draw a rectanglebox around the text you just created. Then drag the text layer abovethe rectangle box if the rectangle is covering the text. Your buttonshould look something like this:

3. Add a layer style on your rectangle shape and add a Bevel and Emboss using these settings:

4. Then add a Stroke layer style with these settings:

5. And you’re done!
