I apologize for the newb question, but how do I go about widening the text area for the search box native to this theme? I just can't seem to find the right setting to change.

Thank you in advance for any help in the matter.

Hi,
You can use 'width' property to increase the width of the text area of search box. Please add following line of code in your custom.css file. (Please rename 'custom.example.css' to 'custom.css' and clear cached data).
a. If you have enabled search box block then use following code -

#edit-search-block-form-1{
  width: 200px;
}

b. If your search box is a part of your theme then use following code - 

#edit-search-theme-form-1 {
  width: 200px;
}

Rgrds,

Deepika Chavan.

interactive_media-6.x-2.x-dev is now completely revamp as zen-6.x-2.x-dev subtheme, and I am strongly recommend to use the block "Search form" in any region (in Drupal 7.x style), rather than theme default search box implementation (which is now left over as I am too lazy to style it).

In case of interactive_media-7.x-3.x-dev, copy following code from "css/blocks" to your "css/custom.css" (you need to manually create this file) and style as you like:

#block-search-form /* "Search form" block */ {
}
