Replace input type=file by an image

Question

Like a lot of people, I\'d like to customize the ugly input type=file, and I know that it can\'t be done without some hacks and/or javascript. But,

Answer 1

This works really well for me:

.image-upload>input {
  display: none;
}

Basically the for attribute of the label makes it so that clicking the label is the same as clicking the specified input.

Also, the display property set to none makes it so that the file input isn't rendered at all, hiding it nice and clean.

Tested in Chrome but according to the web should work on all major browsers. :)
