 * I am very new to this.
 * I love the plug-in, so far. However, the boxes for the search, name, etc. for
   the shortcodes, below, are not visible on my page as the background is white.
 * Can I change attributes for the shortcodes [pdb_list] and [pdb_signup]?
 * If so, could you please tell me exactly how to do this? Again, very new here.

 * This is not a question than can be answered with a simple instruction. The plugin
   lies the WordPress theme do the styling, so this may be more of question for 
   the theme forum.
 * If you’re interested to learn about how to work with CSS (the technology that
   determines how things look on a website) I’ve got an article that will give you
   the basics and some good techniques for taking control of the appearance of your
   site.

 * WOW! xnau webdesign, your link is quite helpful. Very easy reading and thorough.
   If you were in my region and offered a CSS class, I would happily signup, pay
   and attend. If your reading is this comprehensive I can only imagine what a hands-
   on class would be. Thank you!
