S2 layout tutorial
Weee~Hello again! Another tutorial; this time for S2 layouts!
I decided to make some S2 layouts from time to time because lj started to hate S1 ;o; *kicks lj* >_>;
Let's start, shall we? 8D
I will assume that you already switched to S2 style. Now we're going to choose smooth sailing theme.
On the right you have search where you will write "Blue Days" and hit a button. You'll get two options; choose Blue Days Smooth Sailing by Michael Raffoul. Hit Apply Theme.
Scroll down and choose a page setup.
For the layout Kyoka [Of darkness and light] pick 2 Column (sidebar on right)
For the layout Iori [Injected paradise] pick 2 Column (sidebar on left)
For the layout Miyavi [My song] pick 2 Column (sidebar on right)
For the layout Cra [Earth Angel] pick 2 Column (sidebar on left)
For the layout Lee Junki [Pull me under] pick 2 Column (sidebar on right)
For the layout Teru [Blue Tranquillity] pick 1 Column (no sidebar)
For the layout Yuichi [Come Into My Dreams] pick 2 Column (sidebar on left)
For the layout Jui [Messenger Of The Dark] pick 2 Column (sidebar on left)
and hit apply layout.
Next you'll click on Customize selected theme.
Choose your smiles, get rid of navigation strip (uncheck all) and click on save changes 8D
On the right click at Sidebar. Click on "Free Text Sidebox" it will expand it. In Free Text Position choose 7. Then in "Free Text Sidebox Title" write Credits and then in Free Text Sidebox Text paste this code:

I'm a nice person; but it's going on my nerves how people don't credit us. We did all the work for you; made a layout, made a coding and you only need to spend 3 minutes following this tutorial to set up a layout. It's not hard to give credits is it?? So please CREDIT US! It's not so hard. Thank you.
Now click at Custom CSS. Make sure that ALL of the drop down menus say NO. Paste the code I sent you in the Custom stylesheet.
(Don't forget to upload pictures on either photobucket or imageshack and paste your own links in overrides!)
After you finish click on SAVE CHANGES and your layout should be done and ready to use. Now that was easy, right? o(^-^)V
[EDIT] If you're annoyed by your icons showing on your entries page do the following:
Go to Customize Your Theme -> Display -> Expand Additional Options -> Usericon Visibility -> Show icons on all pages except the recent entries page.
If you have any questions or something feel free to ask me <3 I'm always willing to help ^-^
