Hi,
I recently ported Flexible Squares + a layout from livejournal to use at

3weeks4dreamwidth. Try as I might, I'm having a hard time adjusting some things, and since I'm on a bit of a deadline (wanted to start promoting on the 1st) I hoped somebody here might have the answers.

My two big issues are:
~~the font in the comments is tiny~~
the first line of every comment is partially covered up by the poster's icon, as is the second like of entry titles.

Would also love it if:
the entry titles could be links
have icons link to the user's userpics when clicked
change the color of italics
get rid of the calendar at the top
