<p>Love the look of the normal distribution for the accepted answer, but I am not sure about it when it comes to the voting itself (2nd screenshot you posted). I understood that those were buttons to up/downvote because I know how stackoverflow (and related sites) work. But if I were a new user who was not familiar with the way the site works I wouldn't immediately recognise them as arrows to vote.</p>

<p>Maybe red and green (for bottom and top respectively) border would help in that sense?</p>
