Today Google announced a new-look Google +1 button that matches the new Google+ theme.  Traditionally the +1 button was a white box with a blue +1 that turned a very loud royal blue when clicked.

If you are looking for different sizes, type see the Google +1 configuration tool for all the various button sizes.  The changes will be pushed out to the public automatically – no need to update any existing code.

For more information, see the Google+ developers blog.
