I think the whitespace below the titles should be as much as that between the title and the header. What do you think?

Re: Leave some space below titles?
That would mean more scrolling. Could argue that the white space above it should be eliminated...
I think it's fine as it is. The idea is that the title is part of the content that follows it.

Re: Leave some space below titles?
We can already see what the whitespace is currently, how about what it would look like with the amount you're suggesting? ![Wink ;)](./images/smilies/icon_e_wink.svg)
Re: Leave some space below titles?
I think it would be a much better idea to include a CSS class into the <h2> elements.
Currently, they are all just <h2> without any class. You have to style them using weird code like:
body.section-viewforum h2 { margin-top: 1.1em; }
body.section-viewtopic h2 { color: #555 }
By including classes into the title like: <h2 class="topic-heading"> (.topic-title is taken already I think), you can easily style them any way you want.

Re: Leave some space below titles?
In other pages the titles stand out:
The top margin should be left as it is - better have a margin-bottom and then anyone can change that amount the way he wants.
Not much amount, as much as a single line break would be (<br />):EXreaction wrote:We can already see what the whitespace is currently, how about what it would look like with the amount you're suggesting?
Yeah, that would be good if not better.PayBas wrote:I think it would be a much better idea to include a CSS class into the <h2> elements.

I think that looks better than it is now.

Re: Leave some space below titles?
I don't think that the current way looks bad. The suggested way looks worse for the Posting example (too much space below the title).
I do agree with using CSS classes on the Header elements.

+1 for adding classes to the h2 elements.
Re: Leave some space below titles?
-1 for adding the extra space. I feel the topoc title has a better connection with topic currently.

Looks fine now. No need for more space, in my opinion.
