Keep It Simple
(Flexible Squares lyt for Blue Gray)Browser:
Firefox, Opera, Safari, Chrome, IE. There's this thing in IE though, where there's a massive gap between the entries? Yeah, that's it. No one uses IE anyway... right? If you have any clues as to how to fix this, please let me know.
Screen:
Percent-based. 800x600+.

Notes:
This was the culmination of another month-long layout block. I'm still on a roll.
To Use:
1. Go to the customize page and type "Flexible Squares" into the search box.
2. Select the theme "Blue Gray." (This is important.)
3. Click customize your theme, then the custom CSS link.
4. Set both dropdown menus to NO, and leave the external stylesheet option empty.
5. Paste the code in the Custom Stylesheet space.
