I've heard it also helps to freeze the layers before frosting so you have a firmer surface to work with. I've never done this, but it makes sense.
Another thing to try is frosting the sides first, working from the bottom up, and then placing frosting on the top center and spreading to the rim which has built up from frosting the sides. Use a thin spatula to smooth and swirl, as Regina mentioned before.
