All special fonts have been embedded into the layout from Google Fonts.
Coding is a real pain to list here because now anything with a # creates tags in our system.
To get around this I'm sharing the coding via a code testing site where you can also see the layout working live.

Because this is not Flexible Squares the attributes are called something different but I tried to put notes into the coding to help with this.
Header Image: So the header image is back on and different that previous Expressive layouts. #header-inner is the equivelant of .header-image.
My header image is 300px in height. If you want to have a bigger header image there are settings you'll have to change in the coding. Here they are in order inside the coding:
Title & Subtitle: In Flexible Squares I turn off the Title and Subtitle because the title of the post messes with them. I typically use them because they are nicer looking that Flexible Squares but with this layout they are hard to control so using a header-image as a title and subtitle was easier and less time consuming (having to figure out how to place them).
Meta: Essentially any data on your post: date, title, comment section at the bottom and the skiplinks for editing your post. I like that these links are always at the bottom of your post but it can be a pain when you have a massive post like this one. LJ-cuts help when you are on your main journal and not within a post. Lj-cuts are our friends.
Names in Coding: The names of nearly all the coding areas are very different so there was a huge learning curve. Felt like my first tries with layouts but I've tried to make notes in the coding so you'll know if your familiar with Flexible Squares. I think I'm going to eventually post a "translation guide" which will help you and myself when creating. Going forward I'm going to try to translate a few layouts from the past into Expressive and anything new will be both.
