quotefilter is a simple drupal module that wraps blockquotes up in pretty quotation marks. It utilizes GIF images by default because IE (even version 7!) does not properly handle PNG transparency, and while I give not a fig if IE users can see my site (obviously - right now the navbar ends up in the middle of the window) someone else might. Below is a sample of what it looks like:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Etiam sit amet quam quis metus posuere gravida. Fusce sed justo id libero dignissim fermentum. Sed molestie purus vel enim. In hac habitasse platea dictumst. In tortor. Aliquam sapien ante, sagittis et, tincidunt non, vulputate ac, odio. Class aptent taciti sociosqu ad litora torquent per conubia nostra, per inceptos hymenaeos. Donec hendrerit nunc et felis. Nulla nec sapien. Nulla sit amet ipsum id orci facilisis convallis. Vestibulum vitae quam. Sed ac est. Suspendisse volutpat leo non massa.
quotefilter uses its own css file, located in its directory, and works both from installation-wide and site-specific module directories. It has no settings, nor permissions, but you can tweak it from the style sheet.
quotefilter is licensed under the GPL v2.

Quotes with images
Hi,
Thanks very much for making this module. Much appreciated that you can just drop it in and the quotes appear automatically without any editing on our part! I just have one issue I wondered if you had encountered or have a solution for.
If a blockquote is near a floated image then, whilst the quote does appear, the left hand quote mark does not wrap around the image like the text does, so does not appear (unless you use position: relative; in which case it does on FF, but it appears on top of the image).
If that explanation isn't clear, have a look at this example to see what I mean!
Thanks, Adam
Understandable
It's been a long time since I even looked at this thing, but with the release of drupal 5.0 I'm going to have to give the module some attention anyway. I want to give permissions and maybe trigger it from something other than an HTML tag.
