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=
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>""";

I've imported your code, and have customized it to suit me. Thank you again!
I plan on posting them here, as well as working with the styles they have here so that everyone can play along.
If you go here: LJ Public Layers
Then click on Flexible Squares. At the top, you should find two links that say Raw Source Code and Syntax Highlighted. Click on either of those.
Of course, there will be some errors. There are things that this site doesn't have, or has different. So, you'll have to fiddle with the code some.
I'll be working on bringing Flexible Squares this weekend.
However, like the tagging here says, you need to be paid or permanent to be able to use these, because you have to be able to create layers.
I'm willing to go paid if it means I can bring my old layouts over. Because I am just that pathetic. ::facepalm::
I've got smooth sailing set up and customized, but when I uploaded my custom mood icons (they're 102 x 67), they seem to be stretched. Any idea how I can fix this? (without having to resize the icons...)
(and thanks ^_^ )
*loves*
Do you think you could put them on a to-do list?
Pretty please?
Sam
A little help would be dandy!
*is a dolt*
GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
On your css file, where it says this:
.header-icon {position: absolute;z-index: 1;}
Change it to this:
.header-icon {position: absolute;z-index: 1; display: none;}
Re: GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BTW, I took one of your "button" and put it on my User Info.
I'm PROMOTING your community!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think I'm addicted to it, too O.o
InsaneJournal soooooo needs to make Smooth Sailing available as a standard!
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,
