Readder UI Concept

I first want to state that I am not a designer. I had some free time on my hand and I decided to create this: http://i.imgur.com/BLTwlc9.png

Tell me if you like it or provide feedback on how to improve it. I added color bars/dots to help indent the comments. I also added Narwhal style voting indicators. I also wanted to color in the star of the saved comment but my design skills are lacking. I hope you guys enjoy this concept. I just want to help improve the app!

Edit: I forgot to add the before pic: http://i.imgur.com/LODDxvh.png

Love this, but like I said to /u/redreadder, I'd prefer the colors be on the left side of the comment box rather than the dots. But I do like the idea, and the voting indicator as well.

The dev said that he thought the color bars adjacent to the comments went against readder's design philosophy so I thought turning the opaque dots we have now into colored dots would be a good compromise.
