 * I’m using a customized version of the Blix theme. Can anyone tell me what css
   code to remove to eliminate the tweaks the theme makes to forms? Specifically
   the button appearance (color and shape) and the text size.
 * Thanks.

 * In your layout.css down the bottom just before archives/subcontent is a little
   section titled, rather aptly, FORMS.
 * There you’ll find ALL css styling for your contact & comment sections (ie: comment
   FORM & contact FORM) For the most part, the author styled the form & some form
   elements generically, as in no specific id’s were issued to make global styling
   easier. Otherwise, they’re easy to locate #commentform or #contactform
 * You can tweak all you like – button, textarea and input id’s are all noted. Additionally,
   when you open your comment.php, comment-popups.php AND your blank contact page,
   you’ll find the html down the bottom, a bit like this…
 * <form>
    <fieldset> [p]<label>**Name**</label><input type=”text” name=”author”
   id=”author” value=”`<?php echo $comment_author; ?>`” tabindex=”1″ />[/p]
 * [p]<label for=”email”>**Email**</label> <input type=”text” name=”email” id=”email”
   value=”`<?php echo $comment_author_email; ?>`” tabindex=”2″ /> _`<?php if ($req)
   echo "Required, "; ?>`hidden_[/p]
 * [p]<label for=”url”>**Url**</label><input type=”text” name=”url” id=”url” value
   =”`<?php echo $comment_author_url; ?>`” tabindex=”3″ />[/p]
 * [p]<label for=”comment”>**Comment**</label> <textarea name=”comment” id=”comment”
   cols=”45″ rows=”10″ tabindex=”4″></textarea>[/p]
 * BUTTONS:
    [p]<input type=”hidden” name=”comment_post_ID” value=”`<?php echo $
   id; ?>`” /><input type=”submit” name=”submit” value=”Submit” **class=”button”**
   tabindex=”5″ />[/p] </fieldset>
 * If you want to keep the present styling on your contact form, but change it for
   your comment section, you can by simply changing the #id / .class of your ‘submit’
   to anything you like (ie: class=”commentbutton” and then add the new .class to
   your layout.css and tweak away 🙂
 * The best thing about wordpress is you can play with your theme and in the process
   get to know how things work. Half the fun is finding, designing and altering 
   existing html to output the design the way you want it to display.

 * Hey Kate,
 * I appreciate the guidance, but I’m not seeing what to specifically edit to turn
   the contact form boxes back into the traditional ones, not the highly stylized
   ones…
 * Thanks!

 * You could try removing all the styles in that FORM section and see if it looks
   ok.
 * If you’re mostly concerned with “button appearance (color and shape) and the 
   text size” you could try removing only the style rules with `background`, `color`,
   and `font` properties.
