Contact Form 7 Help- New to HTML

[ifiwasaninja]

Hello everyone,

I am a total newb and this is my first time building a website. I have very little html experience. I have a few questions about how to customize my contact form…

1. I am using contact form 7.

2. Here is a link to an image of the forms current state, and my desired outcome:

https://cloudup.com/c7-p8EDa8fZ

3. The site is currently not publicly view able.

4. My current plug ins are:
   Themify Ultra
   Contract Form 7
   Mail Chimp
   Easy Google Fonts

Here is the current code for the contact form 7:

<p>
    [text* your-name placeholder "your name"] </p>

<p>
    [email* your-email placeholder "email address"] </p>

<p>
    [text your-subject placeholder "subject"] </p>

<p>
    [textarea your-message watermark "your message"] </p>

<p><div class="submit-wrap">[submit "Send"] 
 [recaptcha]</div>

So my questions are:

• How do I add a red asterix to the required forms on my contact 7 form?
• How do I put the recaptcha button next to my submit button with some spacing?
• How do I increase the size of my social widgets on a page (not in the footer / header)?
• What is the best way to embed an image into the contact 7 form, so that the image scales with the form?
• How can I incorporate the large “back to top” arrow and embed that into a page?

Also,
Are there any other plugins you guys recommend I should incorporate (SEO, security, etc.?)
Do you recommend contact form 7? or is there anything else out there that is better?

Thank you in advance, and forgive me if I didn’t post to the forum correctly. I am open to any and all suggestions.
