 * Don’t edit the Twenty Ten theme. Your changes **will** be over-written the next
   time you upgrade WordPress. For this reason, it is recommended that you consider
   creating a [child theme](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes) for your customisations.
 * Once your child theme is active, we should be able to help with your customisations.

 * Try styling on `input[type=submit]`.

 * thanks Esmi
 * I figured it out.
 * I added this code to style.css
 *     ```
       input#searchsubmit {
        width: 60px;
        height: 26px;
        background-image:url(images/srch_button.png);
        background-color:#FFF
        font-size: 12px;
        color: #fff;
        border:none
       }
       ```
