    To create text like this I always use MS Word to try to recreate it (change the background color and the font color and try a few different fonts until it works).
    Once you have something good take a screen shot and paste the text to photoshop and edit the rest of the image.

    I think this font is verdana.

    Verdana is readable down to size 7 (just tested it) as long as you create the text in Word and then paste the screenshot to your image software.

    If you create the text in photoshop it is hard to get it right.

    Are you sure you checked? That is the first font I tried. And Silkscreen's obviously thinner.

    The link I provided is to the original button, which definitely used Silkscreen. Later derivatives (of what proved an almost ridiculously popular) format, may have used different fonts.

    No problem.
