Nicely Done: Poalo's Format Clearly Distinguishes Quote from Annotation

Do to templates, the look may change but Poalo accomplishes quote and annotation with elegance. This blockquote is both indented and italicezed. It's further set off by a vertical dotted line as its left alignment boundary. This style removes the need for quotation marks.

His annotation is outdented and non-italicized. Very clear, nicely done.

Unvisited links are underlined with dashes (which I still have not figured out).

Visited links have a solid underline.

No Excuses
Clagnut could make the rest of us look bad. When I stumbled upon him I subscribed right away because of his simple presentation that used color to accomplish subtle emphasis. Turns out he's color blind!
Thoughtful dialogue.
"I love the new version of TopStyle (Pro 3). Its colour picker is a piece of genius, packed with so many features (all of them useful in their own way), particularly to colour ‘blind’ users such as yours truly."
