Updated. Anil: Overall I like the style you chose, particularly what you've done with comment/commenter display. Is it possible for me to put a style declaration on my side, just to affect the colors and maybe border properties? Leah: Thanks for the heads-up. Updated.

Obviously, I chose the purple outline to kind of tie it to the look of my site, so I'm not sure that works on sites that, well, don't share my aesthetic. :) I wonder if leaving the border style undefined but using an icon or something to indicate source instead might work? I think it can't just be a simple blockquote in a box because then there's no clear indication that you're not actually responsible for the content there. Maybe I could make it look more like a YouTube embed?
