Microformats Buttons

There have been requests for buttons for various microformats. Either badges, or buttons that do something with the specific microformats. This page keeps a list of buttons, and requests as well. - Tantek

Added hosted buttons for all the microformats, including the draft ones, as well as instructions on how to make your own buttons. (14 May 2006) - Ruben

Microformat Banner

I've made a banner for microformats. Since there are so many microformats and with more to come, just indicating support/ use of might be a good generic approach. The image is free to use. Please copy it to your own hosting account and not link to it.

I already have a "I use " on my blog: http://doncrowley.blogspot.com/

Microformats Logos

Rohit is a very poor CSS hacker, but gave it his best shot. He also rendered it at 72 and 18 points.
