I have a few templates that I made myself here

They are Photoshop templates for a few of the buttons. I am sure finding an original from Ian would be much better though.

IF you're looking for the Cacti "gray" buttons, like the "go", "clear", "refresh", etc., I obtained some similar ones using MS Visio to create them and then exporting the result to a .GIF or .JPG file. To do this I performed the following steps.

- Create a white rectangle with black border, 5.5 mm high, wide as needed.
- Change fill properties to frame#28, with color#1 (white) and frame_color#18 (some kind of gray).
- Insert your text using font "Arial Black" in normal mode, black color, size 10pt. Cacti buttons are usually in lowercase.
- Save as .GIF

You will obtain something like the following examples 1 and 2. Then, if you want, you can use a bitmap editor and perform some minor art to clarify the borders and to add some extrusion to obtain a better result, like in examples 3 and 4. Not perfect, but enough for me.
