 * Hello,
    Thank you for a great plugin!
 * I’m having difficulty customizing the search field presented with your plugin
   widget. I read through some other entries where you mention “hr_searchform” but
   I can’t find it called out in any of the CSS in your plugin.
 * Ideally I the search field to match the default styling of my theme. Perhaps 
   you could provide another hint as to how I might accomplish this?
 * Thank you very much!

 * I ended up commenting out a number of lines in ngg-smart-image-search-public.
   css so your search widget retains more of my child theme styling. I still can’t
   figure out why the Title of the widget won’t display, but it must be related 
   to CSS its inheriting from my child theme.
 * As a matter of personal opinion, it seems a lot of additional work in the CSS
   to create the custom look of your search widget when I think most people would
   want to inherit the styling of their own theme.
 * Thanks again for a great plugin!
