Blog Comments need better styling

[Nat Katin-Borland]

I have several comments on how blog comments are handled in the UX2 work. First of all, there's a color contrast issue on FF (see screenshot). Blog comments, especially short ones are difficult to read (also see screenshot). It would be good if the text were indented, so that comments aren't lost below the profile picture. It is also extremely difficult to differentiate separate blog comments. On production KARL, we break comments into separate boxes, so it's very clear. In the UX2 work it would be good if the comments had a bit more a defined boundary so that you can quickly scan all the comments on a blog post.

This is one that we had noted on a ticket in Github: https://github.com/pauleveritt/pyramid_bottlecap/issues/99

I don't think we'll re-invent comment styling, but we should at least make it look like ux1.

see result on the screenshot

I made a background.... if that's no good we can go back to borders

I am going to re-open this and have Blaise take a look at it.

Like it, looks much better than ux1 !
