I didn't see any css file or a method to make the output look nicer. i.e.: when we click on the more option and visit the results page the order, look and feel and all are really bad. We cannot distinguish between comments. Here are my suggestions, of possible:
- To improve readability of the list, perhaps the rows of the result set should be interleaved with an alternating set of background colors (e.g. white and light grey)
- Also a means of labeling each field in bold, such as "Reply to:", "Topic:", "Posted by:" (it is now missing).. Maybe indenting the new posting (the text itself) and placing it in large quotation marks will further improved readability.
- If possible, a means to order the results page in different ways, e.g.: by date, by topic, by author, etc.

thanks a lot!

The "Recent Comments" block generated by this module does not output a "more" link. You must be confusing this with the block created by the Comment module. The block you have enabled should be named "Recent comments (Recent Comments module)" in the block admin interface.

The block created by this module is fully themable using the tools available at the theme layer: CSS and an overridable theme function.

Additionally, if you want to generate more advanced output that allows you to sort by date, topic, author, and so on, you should create a block using the Views module. It's very powerful.

oops! sorry guys. I installed this module, but the block I was commenting on was actually the Views one. I just noticed it.
I am so sorry. I hope there was a way to delete this post completely...

@Vako: No need to be sorry. It was an honest mistake.
