This is something that could be added to all your themes: an option to highlight the comments of the poster of a node. This highlight is usually a different, more brighter background color on the comment.

that is a really nice feature - a great example is techcrunch when arrington comments within a thread that has 200 replies...and great for any story feedback implementation...

That's a great idea. We'll definitely look into that doing this for a future release.

This fix will be rolled into the next version of Acquia Marina, but for those who wish to try it out sooner here is the modification:

Add the following to style.css in the COMMENTS section (around line 1634):

#comments .comment-by-author {
  background-color: #FFFFEA;
}

you're awesome - just saw that it made it into the latest!

honestly, i think this is worth mentioning on the theme home page (e.g. use techcrunch as a reference since you can link to any comment arrington's made as an example)
