Something like this perhaps? (using built in bitmaps in lieu of png images)

use strict;
use warnings;
use Tk;

my %w;

$w{mw} = MainWindow->new;

for (qw/ this that a_longer_name X /){
    my $bttn = $w{mw}->Button(
        -text     => "$_ ",
        -font     => 'times 19',
        -justify  => 'right',
        -compound => 'right',
        -bitmap   => 'warning',
       #-image    => $w{mw}->Photo( -file => 'whatever' ),
        -anchor   => 'e',
        -padx     => 4,
    )->pack;
    push @{$w{buttons}}, $bttn;
}

$w{mw}->update;

{
    my $width = 0;
    for (@{$w{buttons}}) {
        $width = $_->width if $_->width > $width;
    }
    for (@{$w{buttons}}) {
        $_->configure( -width => $width );
    }
}

MainLoop;

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
