Here is a cool trick to try. You can embed a yahoo type smiley set to your comment box as i have done in mine. In the reader wants to add a smiley , he just have to look at it , choose the correct symbol for the appropriate smiley and type the symbol. This may also encourage user to leave a comment. Here is how to do it.
1. Edit your Template
2. Now find out
<p class='comment-footer'>
( press 'Ctrl' + F to open your browser's search box)
If you find two or more code lines , select the second one.
It must be look like this.
<p class='comment-footer'>
<b:if cond='data:post.embedCommentForm'>
<b:include data='post' name='comment-form'/>
<b:else/>
<b:if cond='data:post.allowComments'>
<h3><a expr:href='data:post.addCommentUrl'
expr:onclick='data:post.addCommentOnclick'>
<data:postCommentMsg/></a></h3>
</b:if>
</b:if>
</p>
</b:if>
Now replace this set of code lines with following codes. ( make sure you replace above whole set )
<p class='comment-footer'>
<b:if cond='data:post.embedCommentForm'>
<div style='-moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial; width: 369; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #cccccc; padding: 5px; background: #eeeddf; height:86'>
