Here's the look they wanted (nothing really fancy, as you can see):
Here's the CSS:
<style> #WebPartWPQ2 #SearchBox { width: 650px; } #WebPartWPQ2 .ms-srch-sbLarge > .ms-srch-sb-searchLink { background-color: #fff; float: right; color: #fff; text-decoration:none; height: 24px; width: 33px; } #WebPartWPQ2 .ms-srch-sbLarge>input { border: 1px solid black; border-radius: 5px; font-size:16px; height:30px; width: 600px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px; padding: 5px 1%; } #WebPartWPQ2 .ms-srch-sbLarge-searchImg { position: relative; } </style>NOTE: I'm specifically targeting their web part's ID, WebPartWPQ2; therefore, you'll want to change that to reflect the ID of you web part or remove it if you want all Search Boxes to inherit that particular look.
