 * I managed to work this out. Edit the plugin code – look for the lines below, 
   and add the size=”10″ (in bold below), after the class=”mid”. You’ll need to 
   add it twice. Obviously change the “10” to the size you want the fields to be.
 * // login form
    echo ‘<form method=”post” action=”‘.wp_sidebarlogin_current_url().'”
   >’; ?> <p><label for=”user_login”><?php echo $theusername; ?></label><input name
   =”log” value=”<?php echo attribute_escape(stripslashes($_POST[‘log’])); ?>” class
   =”mid” **size=”10″** id=”user_login” type=”text” /></p> <p><label for=”user_pass”
   ><?php echo $thepassword; ?></label><input name=”pwd” class=”mid” **size=”10″**
   id=”user_pass” type=”password” /></p>

 * I am using sidebar login but the username and password fields are completely 
   different sizes.
 * Even when I try the solution above, it effectively changes their width but they
   are still not the _same_ width. Also the username box is larger, in terms of 
   height, too and the password box is really thin.
 * I also tried increasing the width of my sidebar and removing all of the othe 
   widgets, no luck.

    .custom #user_pass { padding:0.308em;}
