In spite of the color, the "accepted answer" checkmark looks too similar to a down-vote arrow, IMHO. Any inclination to make that icon slightly more checkmark-y?

Otherwise it looks great. Though I agree a bit about the vertical spacing... you could take quite a few pixels off the vertical join lines and still have roughly the same aesthetic. I'm no CSS guru so I don't know what's all involved, but with a few minutes in Photoshop I was able to knock 31 pixels off the top without losing any of the intended look (at least I don't think so). The maroon charlie brown divider is just to show that I reduced the width in order for the image to fit in this post by chopping out the white space. Paraphrasing someone else, 31px is 31px. :-)
