Hmmm. I can see how this would be good, but I would like the option to have this or not. I personally, prefer the comments separated. However, to have this option on comments that lead on from another (a chain) this would be good. For all others, leave unlinked.

Would you mind taking a look at a pastie with some of my changes to this style? See what you think?
A majority of the changes are to make it more compatible with firefox (lots of !importants since many of your stylings were getting overwritten) and to keep most of the functionality. I also made a few aesthetic changes to help keep it in style with the dA comments. Would love to hear your thoughts on the changes

Oh interesting! I like how the replies are attached to each other and there's more space between the top level comments. Nice job!

Thank you! And thank you for sharing your work with us! It's a wonderful stylesheet that helps clean up some of dA's space bloat. Always felt that comments (since they can come in quite large numbers) should use up minimal space.
Been trying to work with re-adding the left bottom corners when they can be there, but because of dA's comment/nesting structure it's proving to be quite difficult; if not impossible.

It's a good addon, Danlev. Thanks for the hard work!

It's not for everyone! Just something I made myself and I thought I'd share.

You also have to take into account if users have Signatures in their post...

Yep, it works fine with signatures.

That's cool. I mean, it would be for some people. I don't see where this would put the "reply" button though.

Nothing. If you have signatures enabled, they will show. If not, they won't.

I turned them off. It works with signatures turned off though.

I don't get it, does it show more messages at a time? Does it make messages load faster?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I think it just makes every message smaller

This'll probably work for some, but it just seems too clustered for me.

Huh... I installed Stylish, restared FF, installed the style, but nothing changed at all.

You installed the style AND stylish?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That's what I said, yeah.
Ok, I notice something changed. The text might be a bit smaller and the reply button is now in a really ankward place. But no good changes.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Oops. It didn't quite work for me. The text on the comments is smaller and takes up less room, but there are still gaps between user comments. Perhaps I didn't install it correctly? I'm using Chrome.

This is pretty awesome. I was unsure at first because they were so close together. But when I read the comments and saw you could edit to put some space, I liked it a lot more~! Great job!

I will be using the shit out of Stylish in the future it seems!
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I think this is useful, it's a great approach and I'm sure many will love this. I think it's a nice addition for the forum area, for the deviations that have a lot of comments, and for the announcements that also have a lot of comments.
By the way, congrats on the DD!

I like the condensed comments thing but I like the full-size comments because they look stylish.
Maybe if the condensed comments like... Had some gloss, or something....?

Great idea! I just tried out a slight gradient on the background and it looks good! I will tweak it a bit and then add it in.

Well thanks and you're welcome. ^^ I'm so happy I made a good suggestion!
