Trying to style login module buttons and fields

I've spent an absurd amount of time trying to figure out how to style the buttons and fields on my CB login module. Using Firebug I've played a great deal with the styles as element.style but I am not getting it into my CSS file correctly, somehow. I have decent knowledge of CSS but this is stumping me! :blush:

Here is my CSS:

Obviously, .cbloginbottom is the class I've given to the module. You can see the live page here

Any help on this is VERY appreciate! Thank you!

One problem I see with your button styles is that the currently applied class is actually .cbloginright. Sometimes rather than giving an element a custom class, you should simply use the existing classes on parent elements. This eliminates the need to dig into the code to find the element. For example:

The above transition styles will apply a fade effect in modern browsers, which softens the user experience nicely when used in conjunction with, for example:

Actually it turned out to be a lot simpler than that, just a stupid little mistake. When I put the class in the module, I put a period in front of it (.cbloginbottom) instead of a leading space ( cbloginbottom). Once I fixed that it worked.

Thanks for the advice, though, isherwood, I can see that coming in handy down the road.
