Grab open a bag of the grammar, you.

Jon Bell, a fancypants web designer I work with, has designed a quality web game called GroupThink. In short, it is a collaborative game about creating amusing/creative/insightful sentences one word at a time.

    Good stuff. Similar word play fun in the beat poet/dada tradition can be found at http://www.languageisavirus.com.

    But what I want to know is how he got the form fields to look so cool. I do a lot of design for tech-averse (teachers, administrators, etc.) and I think the simple underline might ease my UI problems.

    To make the forms a simple underline, just make a bottom border in the stylesheet:

    .underline
    {
    border-bottom: 1px #000 solid;
    border-top: 0px #000 solid;
    border-left: 0px #000 solid;
    border-right: 0px #000 solid;
    background-color: #fff;
    }
