  I have the same problem on my site as well. I leave 6 posts on the slider and two are showing a margin . On mine it seems to be connected with the title . If the title exceeds one line, a margin appears .

  The blog is http://merovee.wordpress.com

  Same problem here (http://eadikigoroi.wordpress.com) too! It must be a bug because it was ok before and it is not the only problem with the post slider. Whether one clicks (left or right) to go to the next or previous post, it always shows the next one (according to time of posting).

  I am having the exact same problem with my blog (using Sight theme) too, since Friday.

  I’ve been using it for a few months with no complaints, but all of a sudden, since Friday, the carousel on the homepage is showing much ‘deeper’ than it should be, with a block of empty space right under the carousel that looks terrible.

  There’s a big gap between the main carousel image and the ‘latest entries’ element.

  I would like to get this fixed asap. What to do?

  The blog I need help with is smashingtheglass.com.

  Any word on this yet? Has anyone managed to fix the carousel glitch on their Sight WordPress theme site?

  Thanks for all the reports about a gap below the featured slider in Sight. Our developers will take a look and I’ll keep you posted here.

  If you have found an issue other than the gap below the featured slider in Sight, could you please start a new thread so we can help you better? Add the tag modlook in the Tags area to be sure a Staff member sees it. Thanks.

  The issue with the gap below the featured-image slider should now be fixed. If anyone is still seeing a gap, please try refreshing your browser.

  eadikigoroi – I’ve replied in your other thread about the separate issues.
