i just recently discovered that there is no way to submit s2 (new system) livejournal layouts. all the coding is in a .css file. i was asking dani (libertie) how i would go about submitting s2 layouts, and she told me that there really is no way to do it with the current system. i could just take a screenshot and clearly write that the preview does not show how the layout actually works, but that still leaves the question of how to submit the layout. i could just put the css in the overrides box, and in the description mention that they need to create a .css file, put the contents of the box in it, upload it somewhere, and copy the url to the file, choose the layout, and paste the URL it in "external style sheet url" under /customize - edit customizations and tell them to check the box saying "override default", but that might all just be a bit too confusing. and i know that cb likes to host all images/files on their servers..
so.. i think there should at least be an upload section for the .css file. if not a completely different submitting category for s2 layouts. |

Here's an example index:
CODE <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Reflections of my life...</title> <!-- * For createblog person skinning this layout: * This is a template for the "Smooth Sailing" layout * Below is the stylesheet. You can insert the stylesheet in place of the <link> tag. * Just type <style type=text/css> and insert the style info and close it with </style> * Don't worry about disabling any hyperlinks. The only ones that actually work are the link to livejournal and createblog * The only other thing that needs to be edited is the text area where the entry text is. I made a note below so you can find it easily. * You can figure it out from there. //--> <link title="Smooth Sailing Default" rel="stylesheet" href="lj_001style.css" type="text/css" /> </head> <body>
