I like this one more.

Reasons:

  Commenting is not broken
  No eye attracting solid blocks of color taking attention away from the text.
  Works better with zoomed in.

View on HN

The link appears to be broken. Happy to check it out, also I have just fixed up commenting, sorry about that.

Hey I fixed the link. I think your skin def looks better than the default HN skin. You should pay some attention to how it adapts to different levels of zoom though. I really prefer the one I linked for this reason. Things like inline replies and tagging are just nice extras.

I can’t really claim any credit for the design. I simply wanted to recreate the look of https://news.layervault.com/ which I really like so all credit for that should go to @Allan

As for the zooming, that should technically work as is, unless there’s something I missed. Let me know if there any particular pages that are looking wonky.
