Interesting idea, sort of a "component as a service". The name kind of bugs me but whatever.

If you're like me and automatically hit enter in every text box, you might get confused when the form resets.

Is there a way to get your button's count through some API?

Thanks for the feedback!

The name was inspired by a post that gave us the idea, not to say it'll stay as this. I'm not too sure about this issue you're having, I can't replicate it.

If you go to http://lolbtn.co.uk/YOUR_HASH/stats you can use this as an API. Here is an example: http://lolbtn.co.uk/65h8r9/stats Edit: We just created this for you as our first reviewer, as thanks!

Ah nicely done, you should add that to the success dialog!

For me submitting the form also clears it, so I can't test or change it anymore. The experience is a bit choppy. Perhaps you can just keep the settings the same so a button creator can create more iteratively.

Kind of neat - although the iframe irks me. I wonder if there's a way to do this easily with JavaScript/AJAX...
