So basically, if there is a space between two brackets, remove it. Be sure not to miss any. If you miss a space, your thread will look awkward; go back and edit your post (you can do so in the bottom right hand corner). </p>
<p>Please refrain from posting unnecessary comments; they make this thread look messy. </p>
<p>Good luck everyone!</p>
