Welcome to the Hyacinth Gardens

http://www.hyacinthgardens.com
I've always loved Jane Austen, even way back in elementary, when I first chanced upon "Pride and Prejudice" comics which was not drawn, more like a series of photographs.

Darcy and Elizabeth are one of my fave couples and since I felt I could only rely on my imagination (which is why I like reading more than seeing the movie adaptation) as to what the other scenes might be between these two lovebirds, I was very glad when I found out later about fanfiction devoted to our Prideful Mr. Darcy and our Prejudiced Ms. Elizabeth.

This is just one of those sites archiving some of the alternatve universe and canon fics about them. Enjoy...

  2. Nona *waaah*...di ko alam CSS ..so eto yung parusa sa nag co-copy lang ng themes ng iba..hehehe...

    actually dito sa akin, although I agree that black on blue sometimes would be unclear...baka kc sa brightness setting din ng pc eh..coz with mine I can read the words in black font clearly (pero malabo na rin mata ko)...will see if I can ask the author who made the them change the font..thanksssss!

  5. Cat, maawa ka sa pumipitik kong eyelid.. =P

    try this: if you can, save the image of your header sa pc mo. then go to ur homepage, click on customize my site, then click on choose your theme and then click on custom theme. tapos upload the pic/image. then customize the colors of your site with the given options. no need to deal with css codes. pls. advise if okay...

  6. ngek! akala ko you meant pumipitik yung eyelid mo dahil sa picture ginamit ko of just one eye..hahaha!

    kc ganito..the basic theme of this is melon, tapos there is some special css code I pasted into the css section...the past couple of days I was trying to pair it with other base themes, but I couldn't get a good result (and I was just cutting and pasting sections of the code...I don't even know if it was correctly sequenced)...

    if I take out the special css, di na sya kc ganito...I was thinking at first baka pwede yung main image lang..pero di ko rin makuha saan ko dapat ilagay eh...

    if I chose the customized theme, there is already going to be a generated CSS code on the section, and tweaking it to make it stay with the same background but with the eye above...kung pwede lang sana yan, I can live with that..any ideas...?

    thanks ulit ha...ideas galore welcome...

    pero actually naisip ko rin..what if mag-iba-iba na lang kaya a ko ng theme every week..hehehe....if di to gumana...*wink*

  7. okay, so di puede yung suggestion ko. can you try to trace which css code stands for the black font and replace it with the light blue font dito sa comment box? baka, ma tsambahan lang po. =D

    and yes, i guess its another multiplitis symptom, my right eyelid ticks involuntarily. my hubby zeroed in on my multiply addiction as he said he experienced it when he was ps2-crazed once upon a time.. he he.

  8. well, I tried that other one too, but I belatedly realized that the code of the author of the css was just for those like in the comment box we can see..because when there was global replace of the color to for ex. red..di pa rin nag change to red ang black font sa harap..huhuhu...
