Need to customize search box location

I'm enjoying customizing the theme to my needs and have just a few questions on the Features page.
1. I can't seem to locate the code in style.css which properly governs the bottom edges for the images I have in the fboxes. Ideally I would like to have the images go to the very bottom or to the edges; I adjust one and it messes up the other. Can you tell me which lines of the css code would help?
2. The search box at the bottom seems to be governed by the code which governs the search box in the nagivation menu at top (image not attached). I have the top one precisely where I need it but it seems to control the horizontal location of the one at the bottom, as show on the live site . Obviously, I need to have it scoot all the way over to the 'Looking for something?' box.
Thanks so much for you help. And again: OUTSTANDING design and function!

There isn't really any code that 'governs' this. The fboxes are all inside a containing div, the will fit the size of the tallest box. Inside the boxes, HTML is used to control layout. Feel free to elaborate more if this doesn't help.1. I can't seem to locate the code in style.css which properly governs the bottom edges for the images I have in the fboxes.

You need to control this with CSS specifiers... as the search form is at the top of the layout, then you need to put your modifications in a "#nav .searchform" type selector so it doesn't affect the one on the bottom.2.

I hate to be a pain, but could you just show me in the code below exactly what to do to keep the top right search box on the right, and the bottom search box on the left, with the "#nav. searchform" thing you mentioned?
I'll buy you and your whole team beer. And I'm not kidding lol

You already did that, although a link in your blog roll would be nice.
Good luck! Love your site and logo
