Importing Flexible Squares journal style to Dreamwidth  

I am so happy that I could port Flexible Squares over from Livejournal! This calls for better layout customisation options. I haven't been trying to improve my XHTML/CSS skills for a while, so let's just say that I kind of suck in this area. The only one I can customise well is probably FS and FS alone. Shame on me, I know.

But hey, I'm not a coder. I'm an English teacher in the making.

It's easy to port Flexible Squares to DW.
  1. Select Journal Style > Developer Area > Your Layers
  2. Create top-level layer. Type: Layout. Core Version: 1 > Create
  3. Your Layers > Livejournal S2 Core, v1 > Edit
  4. Paste this source code
  5. Save and compile
  6. Flexible Squares should be ready to choose from journal style selection~

I've been testing out some styles made by refuted graphics over at LJ. They all work great with FS on DW.

At the moment, this DW is using the exact same layout as my LJ. I'll go and have fun with new DW layouts now!

Thank you so much for this. Last time I tried this I had so many problems with it.

EDIT: Upon having some problems with userpics and the names underneath them on the 'read' page, I noticed that the layer still uses "friends" for this. Some of those instances need to be changed to "read" for these to work properly.
