Contact Earth Form

I made this for the Treehouse student contest. I'm using the CSS normalize file by necolas at http://github.com/necolas/normalize.css and my own CSS files are below that one. The photos belong to NASA and are public domain (the photo number is in the alt tag). The background is Stardust at http://subtlepatterns.com/stardust/ by Atle Mo used under http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/. The two icons are from Icomoon's free pack.
