 * Probably, your template is calling twice the comments.php file.
    When it comes
   to display, layout = visual things… it is difficult to guess without having a
   link, without knowing the theme etc.

 * 1. You should really work on your images before posting! You can NOT insert an
   image that is wider than your content area – it will push down your sidebar in
   browsers like IE (and it is ugly even in FF)
 * 2. The issue isn’t why do you have 2 comment forms. The question is WHY do you
   have it on the index page where you shouldn’t?
    Did you mess around with the 
   template files? (my suspicion is you did and applied some code you didn’t understand)

 * Thanks for the feedback. I’ll work on the photos.
    I want the comments to appear
   on the index page. Here’s the index code for the comments area: <div class=”postmeta”
   ><?php edit_post_link(‘Edit’, ”, ‘ ‘); ?> <?php comments_template(); ?> <?php
   $wp_query->is_single = true; comments_template(); $wp_query->is_single = false;?
   >
 * I’m not sure if that’s where the problem is though.
 * Thanks

 * All set. Figured out the problem. Thanks for the help!
