Use blockquotes to quote someone. Here’s the first blockquote:
To create a blockquote like this, use use the “b-quote” button in the Wordpress editor when in Visual mode, or surround your quote with <blockquote> … </blockquote> while in HTML (WP 2.3 and earlier: “Code”) mode.

Here’s a sample post with 5 comments and 4 trackbacks, showcasing the styling of the comments area. Do the comments have alternating styling, are author / blog owner comments highlighted?

NOTE: Not all wordpress themes are prepared to deal with this less commonly used Wordpress feature. If this [...]
Smilies aren’t used very often in blog posts as far as I can see but in case you DO want to use them (regularely or often) it’s important to see whether they are styled appropriately. Smilies should have a smaller margin than regular images or they won’t integrate very well into the [...]
