Joining in with everyone else here to say THANK YOU for this tutorial!
And posting here because this, to my increasingly weary-tonight eyes, was the first comment where the code changes were mentioned.
InsaneJournal uses LiveJournal's code too, and it'd totally slipped my mind at first, but I found something on IJ in a wild Googling spree. In particular, this might be of interest for you to link to in your post where you mention not having the old source codes for some styles. I snagged Style Contest from there, and with only a minimum of frugging with it (deleting the list of CSS themes, for some reason, was what I needed to do, as well as the "Friends" view thing as discussed in the link around the end of your great entry) I got it to work beautifully with my custom CSS on one of my journals. Apparently the version of LJ code that IJ uses is the same one that DW does. Who'd have thunk it?
This has made me incredibly pleased. Again, thank you, thank you! ♥
