 * Hi Gang!
 * So on a simple contact form I created, (name, email, message) the textarea defaults
   being align to the right for some reason. Is there a class I could use to align
   it to the left?
    All the other fields are defaulting to the left and are fine.
 * thanks,
    gabstero

 * This is most likely due to CSS styling applied to standard HTML form elements
   within your current WordPress theme.
 * To change the style of your CF7 forms you would need to edit the CSS style sheets
   used by your WordPress theme.
 * See [Styling Contact Form](http://contactform7.com/styling-contact-form/) for
   a general explanation of styling CF7 forms using CSS.
 * There is a link at the bottom of the page to a comprehensive and detailed article
   on **Styling Contact Form 7 Forms**. The article shows people, with suitable 
   HTML & CSS skills, how to change the appearance of their Contact Form 7 Forms
   to meet their particular requirements.
