Radio buttons and checkboxes that have been styled are usually considered too flashy and unnecessary by many developers. However, sometimes they become the necessity especially when the existing styling of the pages is poor and does not give the type of functionality that is required. There are a number of creative things that can be done with both, checkboxes and radio buttons, to make them look more beautiful and eye catching.
The stylish CSS checkboxes and radio buttons can be customized easily and can be used on just about any type form you like. The idea is very simple. You just need to make the default checkboxes and radio buttons invisible. This can be easily done by changing their opacity level to zero. Once it has been made invisible, you can replace them with the colourful graphics of your choice. You can then use the proper selector so that it can be alternated between unchecked and checked versions.
