Thanks so much for including eGrace! Very inspiring collection for a part of the blog many don’t pay enough attention to in the design process.

Chad Engle December 15th, 2009

Hi just wanna add that Ego-Box also has pretty comments box, here’s the example http://ego-box.com/updates/newish-animal-prints/#comments

Michael December 15th, 2009

Comments section is crucial – can make or break a page. I have been looking for a comments page for my new site with Joomla – haven’t found too much out there I love!

BLOGERCISE December 15th, 2009

Some of those are great. Others are pretty ordinary though?

Tommy Day December 15th, 2009

Man, I could have used this a couple days ago! I hate styling comments, and I just redesigned a blog I run and I’m not happy with the comment design.

These are great examples!

Victor G. December 16th, 2009

Nice, what a thorough reference list…definitely bookmarking. Some things I’ve noticed on blogs that should be standard are:
1) Threading
2) Moderator/Author’s responses should stick out more
3) Gravatars should become more common
4) I think communities should get more involved with voting for larger blogs. It helps weed out spam, and sometimes the funniest or most insightful ones hit the top

Design is really matters ..good comment with great design is worth watching and following that blog becomes visitors hobby …that blog gets succcesss

chris rhee December 16th, 2009

realy Beautiful Blog Design

Tessa December 21st, 2009

Great list, I think comment styling is overlooked way too often! the tuts+ network also has beautiful comment styling. I really appreciate nicely styled threaded comments, when wordpress first supported them, it was a styling nightmare!

seo December 23rd, 2009

I’m really very useful to follow a long time see this as a blog here Thank you for your valuable information.

michelle December 31st, 2009

Elle January 6th, 2010

Great designs! Thanks for posting – What a great way to highlight blog posts!

Dallas Web Designer January 11th, 2010

You know, the comments section is one of the most forgotten about sections of a blog when it comes to a design. However, it is also a very important section as far as building a community goes. Thanks for the reminder to focus on that section more, and thanks for the post of the great designs that you have found!

Custom Stickers January 18th, 2010

Kojeje July 17th, 2010

Those are great I think if applied to my blog :)

FreeSoft August 18th, 2010

Making comments certainly an important point, all perfectly described and selected in this article, but there is one but: recently a lot of spam, and these comments and would like to ban!

Houston WebDesign August 25th, 2010

Awesome. Some of the them are really really good. Thanks for sharing it. Loved it.

Martin September 15th, 2010

Have think many can do this change with ease and maybe WP should make it possible to upload a gravatar in the backend without adding!!

Web Designer Phoenix September 17th, 2010

A lot of possibilities can happen with a comment box. That’s for sure. Great compilation. Thanks for sharing this info.

Kevin October 9th, 2010

Best comment design I’ve seen in a long time: http://www.davedays.com/blog/tag-your-green/

starcraft November 18th, 2010

I like this one: Tutorial9. White background and clean color is good for reading.

Theo van der Zee December 23rd, 2010

Seeing all those designs I’m wondering if there isn’t too much emphasis on the layout rather than on the content of the comments.. The one by Hicks Design seems simple and clear to me, just enough style and not distracting from the actual content, nice.

Majalah December 30th, 2010

I like UX Booth style. Simple and clean. But, Usually I just use default comment from my blogging platform.

bayan escortlar January 5th, 2011

You know, the comments section is one of the most forgotten about sections of a blog when it comes to a design. However, it is also a very important section as far as building a community goes.

Mark henes February 3rd, 2011

ANida is probably my favorite because of the division between comments. Making it real easy to read.

Magie Gabriel June 23rd, 2011

Yea it seems that there are a lot of designs for a comment box, those are really nice.

I like the second one the most it is more simple…

Mohammad Danish June 23rd, 2011

Hey there I am so grateful I found your weblog, I really found you by accident, while I was browsing on Google for something else, Anyhow I am here now and would just like to say many thanks for a marvelous post and a all round exciting blog (I also love the theme/design), I don?t have time to go through it all at the minute but I have saved it and also added your RSS feeds, so when I have time I will be back to read a great deal more, Please do keep up the great work.

Lampy sklep August 2nd, 2011

For me comment section need to be clear. 1 captcha , text field and fields for the name. The content is most important part – if someone wants to say something and know what want to say about the post – then this is 10/10 for me.

For me the problem is that when you see great design like this you always want to go back to your page and redo something :-) thanks for the designs.

Ed word October 8th, 2011

ANidea style is perfect, thank you!!

Carlo C February 27th, 2012

I currently developing a wordpress theme and I found you site searching for inspiration…

Ann May 23rd, 2012

Rockers delight is the best of them!

Sam June 14th, 2012

I like the pro blog design , any guidlines on how to implement these designs would be a great.

kiran July 27th, 2012

That’s a great collection, I lack inspiration when it comes to the comment section of a design.

Henry Wood February 6th, 2013
