Question Customising Web Form Elements

Hi everyone,

I wondered if anyone knows how to customise html forms so that they look like "mac" type elements, I have attached an image. All that I am questioning is, would I layout the pages with css code and how would I use images, would I purchase the images (i.e. am i allowed to almost copy the elements from a mac)?? I'm at a complete blank, and i'm not that used to creating forms. I can't get my head around how to start this project and get the result desired... it may just be one of my blonder moments.... but thought i'd try here for advice.

It should be possible- its the right hand buttons that might potentially be problomatic. That being said, with CSS pretty much everything is possible.

Any example of a css change in the right direction can be found here:

Thank you, this is very useful, I would imagine if I have the whole image as a background for the field it would work...

Thanks again
