This forum has already solved many of my problems, so thanks to everybody involved. Couldn’t find a solution for this, though (I’m not an expert in CSS etc.):

I would like to have a product search box right above my products (as much as possible – right below the sitewide banner would be good enough. I’m now using the header widget area, which I would like to move to a lower position.

1. Is that possible?

2. Is there a way to change the size of the widget (make larger, esp, wider)? Ideally it would be at least as large as the search box of Amazon. In this case it wouldn’t even matter if the box was above the banner or even above the menus. So no. 2 is the more important issue.

Thanks for any help!
