 * Hi folks,
 * I’m adjusting twenty ten theme to my own flavor, first question is that oke ?
   Then my second question, i noticed searchform.php is not in the theme folder.
   Is that of a specific reason ? Third question, can i somewhere change the submit
   button to a type=image ?
 * Looking forward to hear the answers.
 * Thank you for making the Twenty Ten theme, i love it, really nice code.
    Thank
   you wordpress for making it all possible 😉
 * bye, M.

 * yeah that’s fine. You’ll need to add your own searchform.php file with all of
   the needed content to be able to change the button type.

 * so to create a searchform.php do I just copy the search function from the general-
   templates.php file?
