Post subject:  quotes

I have a quick question about quotes:

Why are the always 2 empty lines below (and not above) a quote, even if you did not put those in?
This way if you put a couple of quotes with short answers in a post it takes up a lot of space.

Just something that has annoyed me for a little bit, but is noting serious.

here is an example:

My first guess would be that the buttons on the right take the whole width. And they are about two lines high when you include their margin.

That's just how this particular template is written. I've gone ahead and removed one of the <br /> tags (the other is necessary for the layout to display properly). I'll keep vertical compactness in mind while implementing the new theme.

One of the things to keep in mind: don't put an extra carriage return after the quote.

--------------------------

Do this:
[ quote ]blah blah blah[ /quote ]
Your new text here.

Not:
[ quote ]blah blah blah[ /quote ]

Your new text here.

-----------------------------

The template automatically puts one in after the quote, so two are showing up because you're putting the extra one in. Some thing that annoyed me for a long time, then I finally tried leaving it out and was much happier with the result. :)
