I think Gimli was just being stubborn(duh) but after awhile, especially after the acceptance and toleration of Galadriel, he did not hold the same prejeduces against the elves. Also, I think if Gimli had continiued to hold grudges, I think he thought that Legolas had a tie and might tell Galadriel. A silly paranoia on his part. On the other hand, I don't think Legolas ever hated or grudged elves, he(like his kin) felt supperior and therefor better than everyone else in the fellowship. Aragorn was an old friend; Boromir...I guess he grew to respect him; Gandalf, old friend or aquaintance; Gimli, it took some time, and Gimli had to make the first adjustment; and the hobbits where probably oblivious to it all.
