I actually see the form becoming an issue when zooming in (old version of Firefox).
Looks nice - I decided as mentioned above to have a css code that puts a background image to a text field (in a div). The textfield then I dont draw border and background etc.... This was my solution to making a custom textfield. Of course it does not enlarge when zoomed, but oh well. I may change that in the future, I will see.
