How to create different shaped command buttons In VB6?
I found an application which creates command buttons for you.

Try:The 3d control creator
And Here
There are many ways of doing this as nearly anything can be used as a command button.
If you want to create a command button using a picture, use Corel Paint Shop Pro or something similar and use the effect which makes a picture look like a button.
Either :
insert the image directly into your form
or:
Create a command button.
Change the command button's Style property to graphical
Change the command button's Picture property to the picture you want to show.
Change the command button's DownPicture property to the picture you want shown when you click on the command button.

If this is not what you are looking for, try looking on Google for things like Sheridan 3D Controls who make ready-made VB controls.
