 * Somehow all of my coding is one massive on going block of text with no line breaks
   or anything, so this is pretty tricky,
 * but i’m trying to make the gaps at the top and bottom of each post summary on
   the main page of my site the same.
 * the site’s [http://www.rapnews.co.uk](http://www.rapnews.co.uk) and i want the
   amount of space between the lines either side of my post summaries to be the 
   same.
 * anyone got a quick solution on this? what should i be editing and what tags etc
   should i look through in the mess of code on it?
 * thanks in advance for your help.

 * depending on your theme, you’ll just need to adjust margin/padding (top or bottom)
   settings for either the post or entry classes, it actually doesn’t look so bad
   the way it is in either IE or FF.
 * BTW, which translation plugin are you using ?

 * i think it looks OK. your theme has some padding or margins built in to the top
   or bottom of either the `.entry` or `.post` class in style.css which is causing
   the extra bit of space between the ‘post’ and the ‘line’. it’s easy enough to
   adjust if you want to but as I mentioned, I think it looks pretty good as is,
   if I have some time later I’ll load your css up in topstyle and let you know 
   what needs changing in order to center things.
