With help from the art team, I've created the relevant buttons, and made
a mockup of the Support page:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Website/SupportSection

If anybody are unhappy with the look of the buttons, you're welcome to
fire up Inkscape and have a go at them. The SVGs are available here:

Comments are welcome!
