Editing input type="search" Pseudo-element Button ('x')

Question

I'm trying to make a search bar that will look nice. What I did is, I made an image of an search bar and I'm adding the image to the back-ground of the input and I'm editing the place and the size that the font will appear. The only thing that I can't find a way to edit is the small 'x' button that appears when I'm using input type search. I want to move it a little bit left so it will fix my search bar image.

Here is my HTML:

<input id="search" name="Search" type="search" value="Search" />

Here is my CSS:

#search{
    width: 480px;
    height: 49px;
    border: 3px solid black;
    padding: 1px 0 0 48px;
    font-size: 22px;
    color: blue;
    background-image: url('images/search.jpg');
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-position: center;
    outline: 0;
}

Styling the "x" cancel search button in Webkit browsers

Assuming you're talking about "Cancel search" [X] icon that appeas in Webkit browsers only (Chrome, Safari, Opera) you can use -webkit-search-cancel-button pseudo-element. E.g:

#Search::-webkit-search-cancel-button{
    position:relative;
    right:20px;    
}

Using this approach you can even create your own cancel button, for example this style:

#Search::-webkit-search-cancel-button{
    position:relative;
    right:20px;  

    -webkit-appearance: none;
    height: 20px;
    width: 20px;
    border-radius:10px;
    background: red;
}

Instead of [X] will create a red circle.

For IE10 and above you can use following to move the button:

#Search::-ms-clear{
   margin-right:20px
}

Oh and do use placeholder="Search" instead of value="Search" - it will display word "search" when input is empty - and will automatically remove it when user types something.
