  You need to read that whole article in order to comprehend how to set up a Showcase template as a static front page. Until you do that the continue reading will not appear.

  Im sorry you didnt get the question right.. From my previous post and your reply i figured how to get the continue reading button… Here i wanted to know about the formatting of the button… as in i would love it to be a big rectangle shaped button instead of just like any other link… please scroll down on this page and have a look at the Continue reading button.. thanks!

  Sorry but timethief did get the question right. The striped “continue reading” button isn’t the regular read-more link you insert manually, it’s the special read-more link that shows up automatically when you use sticky posts and the showcase template (which you don’t use). The appearance of the regular read-more link can’t be changed, except if you have the Custom Design upgrade.
