Fixed! Finally figured it out! Thanks, Andrew. 🙂

Andrew, the page isn’t live at the moment, but I can give you the css if that will help?

[Excessive CSS moderated, Please do not post that much CSS here. It is really not necessary. All we need is a link to your site.]

I had to replace the top piece of my comments.php file:

<?php // Do not delete these lines
if ('comments.php' == basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']))
die ('Please do not load this page directly. Thanks!');
if (!empty($post->post_password)) { // if there's a password
if ($_COOKIE['wp-postpass_' . COOKIEHASH] != $post->post_password) {  // and it doesn't match the cookie?>
<?php
return;
}
}
?>

with

<?php // Do not delete these lines
if ('comments.php' == basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']))
die ('Please do not load this page directly. Thanks!');
if ( post_password_required() ) { ?>
		<p class="nocomments">Please enter password to view comments</p>
	<?php
		return;
	}
?>

This is what worked for me, anyway! 🙂
