Customize Your Journal Style -> Make sure a Flexible Squares stylesheet is selected.
Page setup -> 2 Column (sidebar on left/right) option selected (doesn't matter).

LAYOUT DETAILS:
→ Actually based on a palette I created a while back! The exact color hex codes can be found at this site address, for your reference. :)
→ In the currents, the Current Location option is disabled.
→ The date and subject headers are purposely centered and smaller than the actual entries to accommodate for a display defect in Internet Explorer, so don't ask about it.
additional
Saving/Hosting: All tiny icons should be saved to your own hardrive and reuploaded onto an image hosting site, in case mine go out. This is not required, obviously, just suggested.
Editing: Feel free to change/edit the backgrounds, color scheme, etc.
Just don't change the framework CSS and be sure to have a link back to this community or my journal as credit somewhere, anywhere on your livejournal.
Questions: Leave a comment, and I'll do my best to help with any problems.
