Hi

If you have never set up a form before, I would suggest that you simply use the text "Submit" and make sure it works before moving on to a graphic. Forms require a server side script (or page) as the "action" of the button to "receive" or better put to "process" the info input into the form. On your server, you will have to have another file, invisible to your users, which will process the "submit". PHP is a good choice to handle that part of the "Submit".
Once that works, just create a <div>, stick an image of your "submit button" inside, and anchor it to the PHP file on your server.
Google "mailto form" and you will find tons of examples and tuts.
