Smooth Sailing Layout Source *updated 8/10/07*

Contents: Smooth Sailing Source Code
Exclusive: No
Subject: Layout Source
Status: Copy/Paste As Is
Credit: Not needed, though feel free to point people back here!
Comments: OMG, totally went to LJ and snagged this. I might be addicted to the layout.

First, you must go to your layers. Under Create Layer, choose create top-level layer > type: Layout, then click on create.

You'll see your new layout layer under where it say 'Child of layer 1: LiveJournal S2 Core, v1'. Click edit and past in the coding I've provided.

Layout Layer

After you've pasted in the code, it the 'save and compile' button at the top, and that should be all. You'll now have Smooth Sailing to choose from in your customization wizard.

*I've added a link to Memories in the menu. If you wish to either delete, or change the link name for this, here's what you need to put in your theme layer:



It's this section that needs to be changed {or removed}:
"""<li><a href="$*SITEROOT/tools/memories.bml?user=$.journal.username">Memories</a></li>""";

Note, that you can also add in menu links if you want. Just make sure they follow this guidline:

"""<li><a href="LINK URL">LINK TEXT</a></li>""";

Thank you for posting this. I was just weeping that Smooth Sailing was available as a standard here.

I've imported your code, and have customized it to suit me. Thank you again!
I don't suppose you could be enticed into bringing Flexible Squares over here (or telling me how the heck to find the source code myself)?
Thank you. :)
Thank you so much! I'm so in love with this layout! :)
Thank you so, so much for this!
You are a lifesaver! Thank you so, so much!
Sweet! Thank you! ^_^
omg thank you sooooo much! this was exactly what i needed to be able to import my custom LJ layout!

*loves*
Awesome! :D As soon as I upgrade, I'm definitely taking advantage of this! :D
Thanks!! You are, as ever, resplendent!
Thank you so much for this!
You rock my socks for this, you really really do! Taken and used most gratefully!
Oh thank you SO very much! I was just in a dither about not having Smooth Sailing over here. And I'm complete pants at CSS- so you have really, utterly made my day!
Thank youu for posting this here, this was my favourite layout over on LJ.
I'm usually not bad with codes but I can't bring up the Mixit or the Expressive code...

Do you think you could put them on a to-do list?

Pretty please?

I just can't seem to get this one added to my styles! Whenever I hit 'compile' it just keeps giving me all these errors. I did exactly what you instructed, just copy/pasting it into the input window, but it just keeps giving me these errors and I don't know what I need to do to fix it :/

A little help would be dandy!

GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YOU ARE A GENIUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'VE DONE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Look at here: http://angeldove.insanejournal.com. I've been wanting to ask someone about this "Smooth Sailing" theme here on InsaneJournal but NOBODY could help me until I've found YOU!!!!!!!!!!! That layout I've found from layouts_by_me on Livejournal. And I love love love that layout but couldn't embed here on InsaneJournal because it NEEDS "Smooth Sailing" theme. Anyway, I'm excited about this. I'm going to tell all my friends about you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One question though, notice on the LEFT corner, my default icon appears? How can I DELETE that?

Anyway, I really need to go. Karate class...you know...running out of time. But I am worshipping the ground you're walking now because THIS is just awesome. I can now embed all of my favorite layouts from that layouts_by_me community. Anyhoo, gotta go!!!!!!! Happy New Year to you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you!!

Thank you so much! I love Smooth Sailing and was severely missing it here!
I keep getting errors, and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong!

This is the error message I'm getting ...

Thank you for snagging the layout layer! ♥
I think I'm addicted to it, too O.o
InsaneJournal soooooo needs to make Smooth Sailing available as a standard!
Thank you! I love Smooth Sailing and was trying to get something that is remotely similar here at IJ. This is so much better!!!
Hi, I've been trying to find someone to help me and I stumbled across you, and I think I've come to the right place.
I have smooth sailing on my IJ but when I try to put a header image on it, it won't work. I know how to do it with LJ, they have that handy CSS box. Could you please explain in *Blonde* directions on how to do this. I would be so very grateful.
Thank you,
Dixiebell
Thank you for this! ♥
Added - thanks so much for the instructions!
fyi: you rock! thanks!

now for a question. if i have a custom css for smooth sailing (i know it works, im using it on lj) and i follow your instructions so i can choose it in my customization menu, would i need to do random extra stuff or just use the basic css override that the wizard provides? thx for your help :)
