I think the main thing here is that the highlights don't look natural. They look more like a glow on the button than they do as any kind of physical indication of light and/or light source. Looks cool, though :D
What bothers me about the button is that it is like too flat, and I'm not a big fan of using the bevel and emboss effect like that....
I like the updated version better, but I think the text on it would look better if it looked inset, and then the highlight on it would need to be below it, instead of on the top.
I'd also make the pattern on the background a bit softer...

Working on a new design for the website. The buttons are killing me. How can something so simple drive a man insane?
