I have a page with several pictures with hyperlinks. I would like to put a
hover button on each of them with a description of the link. Can you tell
me how to do that?

You don't say which FrontPage version, so here's a way that will work in all of them.
In html view add the following to the tag for the link:

title="the text you want to appear when the link is hovered"

so the tag would look like: <a href="thepagename.htm" title="the text you want to appear when the
link is hovered">

In later versions it can be done through Hyperlink properties.

Two ways.
1. right/click the image and select hyperlink properties/screen ti
2. right/click the image and select picture properties/general/text
 
Addendum: I found that text in picture properties will over-ride thr hyperlink screen tips

colors
of the text box, etc.....
