    Sorry for the double post, the first one didn't post correctly, it took me to a blank screen.

    Hello,
    The URL's turn really ugly for my new posts. Check the following:

    Why is the URL so ugly?

    Yeah, I changed it. I'll just not copy and paste directly from Word anymore. Thanks.

    You should never ever do that. Neither in title nor in the posts!
