I did actually find the answer on JS-Kit Comments FAQ. :) Here is the link: http://js-kit.com/comments/faq.html. I do wish they would make this information a little easier to find and implement though. I had to play around with it to figure out exactly what to add and what not to. I will let you know if I find anything about the borders.<br /><br />Recent blog post: <a href="http://faithfulfollowerofchrist.blogspot.com/2009/04/photo-story-friday.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+FaithfulFollowerOfChrist+%28Faithful+Follower+of+Christ%29" rel="nofollow">Photo Story Friday</a> Why thank you, I would be honored by a link!

It's one simple line of code. First look for this line: <br /><br />".js-CreateCommentFieldsWrap"<br /><br />Below that add this one:<br /><br />".js-CreateComment textarea {height:300px;}"<br /><br />You can adjust the height to anything you like, and you could also adjust the width in the same manner if you would like by adding a width specification in the same line of code.

I never even noticed the grey borders until<br />you pointed them out. I haven't noticed the height of the comment box being<br />an issue either. I can however help you with the link color. Look for this<br />line in your code: ".js-singleCommentText a {color: #338888 !important; }."<br />That is the color you will want to change to your default link color. You<br />may also want to change the upload image button and the powered by ones (all<br />three at the bottom) as well. This replying by email feature is also<br />awesome!

I think I can do better than that grainy picture provided on the page in question.

Now if you come across any instructions as to how to raise the height of the comment box so you can see what you are writing please come back and tell me!

Also if you can work out how to make the Recent blog post links the default link colours instead of the text colour.

Oh and, if you can work out how to customise the grey borders around the boxes in the leave a comment box, including the avatar border, tell me that too…

I will have to take a peek at your site now and see what you have done.

I found you through the site Comment Luv<br />linked to that was supposed to tell you how to customize it, but what was<br />provided there really didn't work right. Thank God I had the idea to look<br />at other people who had posted comments! It seems the process could be made<br />much easier. It was still worth the effort once it was finished. If you do<br />make a "how to" post--one suggestion would be to make it very clear what<br />each piece of code is for EXACTLY. :) LOL.<br />_____ Yes, it was totatlly a nightmare!

Is it that you would just like to see more of your post at once without scrolling up and down? Because as I type and fill up the box, a scroll bar appears which allows me to scroll up and down as needed to see what has been written. I purposely made this response long enough to do so in case you are wondering. :)<br /><br />Recent blog post: <a href="http://faithfulfollowerofchrist.blogspot.com/2009/04/photo-story-friday.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+FaithfulFollowerOfChrist+%28Faithful+Follower+of+Christ%29" rel="nofollow">Photo Story Friday</a> Okay I am not sure what you mean about the comment box height.
