 * Hello, I want to create a button to place inside my loop which when clicked sends
   me an email with the post title attached to it.
    My blog posts consists of embedded
   youtube videos, I want this button for use as a “report bad link” button for 
   a situation where the linked video has been removed off youtube. Ideally I would
   like to have this button linked to an image to instead of the generic “form” 
   button look. Any ideas guys?

 * Hmmm…usually something is better than nothing, and when I’m stuck I prefer wrong
   answers to none… perhaps you can find a plugin that sends you email?
 * ideas of the top of my head…
    something like this [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/send-e-mail/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/send-e-mail/)
   modified, or you can subscribe to your own posts with subscribe2 plugin…but then
   you’d have to modify it or use something else
 * or I’d try to google search or “wordpress.org/plugins” search a plugin that allows
   you to send an email of the post to yourself and but then I don’t know what to
   do at the button part.
 * Perhaps somebody at plugins would know?

 * Thank you very much, I didn’t want to have to use a plugin but it seems like 
   my best bet, I was able to recreate a text link that does the job nicely, but
   it relies on opening outlook to send an email with pre-defined information. Not
   sure what it would do on a computer with no trace of outlook installed on it..
   hrmmm
