WordPress – Gd Star Ratings Multi-set Displayed In Comments

I have installed GD Star Rating on a woothemes Listings Directory Site and followed instructions here http://www.gdstarrating.com/2009/05/27/comments-integration-1/ & here http://www.gdstarrating.com/2009/05/28/comments-integration-2/ to integrate it into the comments …So far i have it that people can place their ratings and write a comment relating to the business profile/consultant but the multi-set rating results bar isn’t displaying with the published comment and the multi set rating beside it.

The instructions state the following:

“Threaded comments introduced with WP 2.7 use a Walker class for rendering the comments. So, you will need to modify the Walker used by your theme. This is very different from theme to theme, and I can’t describe the process in many details. For default WP theme, this is a problem, because this theme uses built in Walker that you shouldn’t change. The solution is to write new Walker class and use it. Starscape has it’s own Walker class, and this class is located in modules/comments_walker.php file in Starscape folder. StarscapeCommentWalker class is used by comments_new.php file. In this case, you also need to modify a class method that’s used to render each comment. This method is called start_el().”

I need someone that is a wordpress expert familiar with above classes and theme functionalities etc that can speedily get this ratings results bar to show next to each comment given.
