For anyone having trouble...

Flexible Squares is an LJ S2 style that looks nice and clean and preserves subject lines, alphabetical text icon list, linking to a comment starting at that comment, no problem posting comments, etc, etc. As in, I'm vaguely aware they changed something from my friendslist but you can't tell it from my own experience, as I've always had my LJ set up to use my own format everywhere (way too many people set up their LJ design to look shiny and be unreadable.)

Here, have a kitty.

Specifically, it's this one: "View all journals and communities in my own style" that isn't available without upgrading.

Huh. "View comment pages from my Friends page in my own style" should still be showing you comments in Flexible Squares, though. I use Firefox, and it's working for me in that styel.

your journal works, obviously, but if I go to someone using something different, it just defaults to the new standard.
