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?
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.

In other pages the titles stand out:
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. 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.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.
