I’ve had this blog on WordPress 2.7-beta using SVN for a while. So when it went release candidate, all I had to do was another just run another “svn up”.
The comment enhancements are cool and Otto provided a good write up for modifying the files to take advantage of it. Implementing it and staying XHTML valid was not a problem.
My problem was that without styling it, the new comments looked like crap.
Lucky on the WordPress support forums I found that Chris Harrison mapped out all the CSS for the comment list. Adding the elements that he provided let me easily make changes and get the comments close to the original look.
I still need to play around with it but so far I’m satisfied with the results.

Really did. I’m going to play with the CSS some more to get the name and date/timestamp formatted the way I like it. Having the CSS available make my like lots easier.
