Buttons for the top banner

In our meetings we had made a decision on the different sections that we would incorporate within the product.  This now allowed me to design and produce the buttons for these sections.
A button needed to be designed for the following sections that would be accessible from the top banner of the site : Home - Image Bank - Save - Facebook - Twitter - Information - Assistance.

My first attempt on the save, info and assistance buttons:

The style that I wanted to portray was one that could be associated with the product in the style it had been produced.  A sketchy look would suit the site and what it was about so I started again on the buttons and attempted to be consistent throughout on the creation of all the buttons.

The buttons below I sketched by freehand and scanned them into the computer,  cleaning them up using Adobe Photoshop and placing a circle around them.  

I feel the buttons relate more to the product with the sketch effect they have rather than being perfect.  It is a drawing/sketch application that we are producing and these buttons co-inside with the product.  The Facebook and Twitter button has been combined though this may change and the colour maybe also be altered to continue the black and white look.
