Pinterest has this code on their site, but adding it to the custom buttons section of this plugin doesn’t work:
<a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/" class="pin-it-button" count-layout="horizontal">Pin It</a>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://assets.pinterest.com/js/pinit.js"></script>
Added %%URL%% in the URL like this:
<a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=%%URL%%" class="pin-it-button" count-layout="horizontal">Pin It</a>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://assets.pinterest.com/js/pinit.js"></script>

Thanks and congrats with your plugin. I tried about 6 and selected yours. Alternatives either missed linkedin, didn’t allow positioning at the top of the post etc.
This being said, would there be a possibility to make the buttons fit together more tightly?
At present, there’s a lot of white space between them, which tends to make the post layout look fragmented.
For clarity : compare before and after my tweaking :

The problem with my mod will most likely be that, at the moment the “like” count reaches three digits, the count balloon graphic will overlap a neighbouring button.
Therefore we would need to find a way to:
1/ make a count balloon show beside buttons even if there are 0 “likes”, so that visually spoken there’s at least an indication of volume.
2/ position / code buttons in such a way that they press one another forward as counts/figures increase, thus making the space they need.
