    I am using balance theme and I want to add a eNew Extend Widget to the location Home Feature Right.

    However, it ends up with wired input box...

    How should I change the code to make it to a better look?

    My site here

    
    /* Home Featured

    #home-featured {
     background: url(images/gray-texture.jpg);

     padding: 35px 0;
    }

    Hi,
    Mandarin - wow! You could try this CSS code:

    .home-featured-right .enews #subscribe {
      padding: 0 0 0 50px;
      text-align: left;
    }

    Have you been able to resolve this? It looks good to me, but my sense of design isn't great. ๐Ÿ™‚

    I have make it work on screen wider than it can display for both featured left and right.

    for a smaller screen, or mobile. It still sucks. ๐Ÿ™

    Can you be more exact on what sucks? I could suggest some changes but don't want to waste your time.

    On line 2248 of your style.css, you'll see

    .enews #subbox, .s {

    change that to

    .enews #subbox, .enews #subbox1, .s {
