11.60 huge feed titles

Is there a way to reduce the font size and/or height of the RSS feed title header? (In my screenshot, It's the part on the right that says "New keynotes! RIM and community Android and iOS action at Qt Developer Days S.F.")



It currently takes a full 1/3 of screen height when there's a long title, so I find it to be quite excessive...

+1.
Removing some of the wasted white space above and below the header would be nice too.

there must be some CSS or config item to control this, no?

This is painful on laptops with very limited vertical resolution (ie 1366x768). I've come across instances wherein the subject takes up almost the entire screen space, and I have to scroll down just to see any message.

RSS headers are one of the most craziest design decisions in time. I still hope it will be corrected, for some of us won't use it as it is now. Old design was good, new could be also if size is customizable.

Fine!

Maybe has too much blank space though... i'd prefer header being more compact as before, but thanks a lot anyway!

In all snapshots (even in RC) for Opera 11.60 preview text RSS (and some mail for that matter) font stays real tiny even when increasing webpage font size (issue not prezent in Opera 11.50). It gets larger with zoom aplied, only to revert to tiny when reading another feed, which is making me press way too often the + key sad

Could you please explain somebody who isn't fluent in css which parts of feed.css I have to modify (and how) to get the title smaller or maybe remove it completely from the preview? I can see the title in the list of messages, I really don't need it taking up half the space of my preview too.

feed.css only controls the content, title font size can be changed in Advanced-fonts-title. paddings can be changed in skin

Ah, changing the font size helped a bit already, thanks. So if feed.css controls the content, can I remove the header completely there? Is there a helpfile somewhere listing the synthax used in feed.css or would I have to read up on css in general for this?

by "content" I mean body text, tweaking the skin may be able to make the header even smaller, like shrink the paddings and stuff.

Ah, so I'll have to look into skins... drat. Well, at least now I know where to start, thanks for the help!
