There are a few portals available outside of VB.com. The only one I have any experience using is vbadvanced.com. It's fairly decent. Check out their website, I believe there is a demo available.
As far as different buttons, if I'm following your question correctly, it's as simple as uploading your new designed buttons and replacing/overwriting the existing vb ones.
