 * I have a webcomic based on WordPress/Comicpress. So I wanted to use CSS to have
   speech bubbles on the comments. I started messing around with the CSS and got
   this:
 * [http://server.ericsbinaryworld.com/notmad/2010/05/10/a-new-advertising-partner/](http://server.ericsbinaryworld.com/notmad/2010/05/10/a-new-advertising-partner/)
 * looks good. Yeah, I’d like to get the gravatar and name to display below the 
   speech bubble, but that could be a question for another forum post. My problem
   comes with nested comments:
 * [http://server.ericsbinaryworld.com/notmad/2008/11/12/im-a-pc/](http://server.ericsbinaryworld.com/notmad/2008/11/12/im-a-pc/)
 * I know one possible (and probably easy) solution is to turn off nesting. But 
   I like the ability to reply to specific comments.
 * Is there something I’m missing on the CSS that would make this possible? I’m 
   having a hard time finding a lot of CSS and Comment resources on Google post 
   WP 2.7 (when they simplified the comment code).
