   I want to highlight comments made by me (uid=2) and otherwise use alternate background colours for comments.
   I created three classes in style.css

   .authcomment {
   background-color: #050C00;
   }
   
   .oddcomment {
   background-color: #EFE7FC;
   }
   
   .evencomment {
   background-color: #B3FCE8;
   }

   Now, I want to use authcomment for author comment, oddcomment for all odd no. comments and even comments for all even no. comments.

   Can someone please share the code for achieving this. I am not able to implement this properly.

   It's really hard with the new comment loop. Anybody figure it out??

   This was easy to do with the old comment loop. Something like:

   <?php $comment_count++; if( $odd = $comment_count%2 ) { $commentclass="oddcomment"; } else { $commentclass="evencomment2"; }
   ?>

   And follow that with a conditional that checks whether the post author is making the comment, and if so, $commentclass = "authcomment". Finally, call it conditionally in the comment loop:

   echo '<div class="' . $commentclass . '">'
