 * Hey,
 * I’m wondering if you might consider not using inline styles for all of the form
   elements. This makes it pretty darn near impossible (without getting hacky) to
   style the forms properly, based on the site. This also creates problems for responsive
   websites, as I can’t get the forms to fit into a narrow column layout. What do
   you think about moving the inline styles into an external stylesheet, so they
   can be overwritten, or provide an option to not include styles?
 * Overall, it’s a great little plugin, though!

 * Hello!!
 * Thanks for letting me know about this issue. You are right, the only way to overwrite
   the inline styles (or at least the only one that i know) is to use the !important
   clause (which, like you said, is kind of hacky).
 * The problem is that most of the styles are dynamically generated, they are dependent
   of the configuration that you select and also the style that you want to give
   it (using the style editor) so it is kind of difficult to do this. I want to 
   do this though, but right now i am focusing on other stuffs like the donation
   wall that i added last week and the future Facebook/Twitter support.
