HTML tags are stripped out of comments because people could add "bad" HTML code that would break your site layout.

1. The comments are specified by the "caption" style, which you can edit in the css/embedded_style.css.default file. Edit that file (and save it without the .default on the end):

.caption /* photo captions on all pages */
        { 
          font-size: 10px; 
        }

This changes the font size for the captions as well. If you want to make a new style without changing the caption style, then you'll need to edit the code in layout/commentdraw.inc.

2. Find this line in view_album.php:

echo("<span class=error>*</span>");

(The "error" style defaults to red.) Change it to something like:

echo("<span style='color: #ABC123;'>*</span>");

That would be a lot of work. You might want to try alternative solution

all of ur advices worked!
thanks beckett and joan!
joan's "most recent comment" mod works pretty, and i recognized it should be a little difficult to make the color changes dynamicly, but now i prefer the info in string than the info in color.
1 more question:
how can i change the encode of the time stamp shows after the comment? it seems gallery automatically get the encode form my os info, but when u run a site for different language with ur os, it comes to be a cumber.
the forum is very helpful! i love it!

find getDatePosted in classes/Comment.php.

Change the date call. If it's not obvious, read http://uk.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php

P.S. What language? Are you aware there is a multi-language version of Gallery available?
