the garden's shed

no garden appears out of thin air, and this garden is no
exception to such rule. here you will find all the construction materials
and updates logs you may seek. unless you wanna go back, then...

to do list

  • make a cute front page! (garden inspired)
  • add a visitor counter in the "index" corner
  • make a site map
  • make a guestbook
  • add an on site music player. automatically played or not ?
  • add a "things i like" corner
  • build the second part of our garden...
  • ...

updates log

updates that are colored in #75ff4a do not exist in the website anymore

date what the garden owner did
01.08.24 created the site and started learning html
02.08.24 updated some info and learned how to make titles and headers
10.08.24 learned how to add dividers, code comments (there may be a hidden riddle in the gazebo... who knows?) and add a pop of color! (not ccs yet tho!)
11.08.24 learned how to add spaces without starting a new paragraph, and how to add hyperlinks
12.08.24 learned how to add images and made a site banner!
15.08.24 learned more html. added bullet points to the "to do list" and a cute cursor from here !!!
27.08.24 been learning more html. also dipped my toes in the ccs lake... (do you say that you dipped your toes or dipped your feet in water?)
29.08.24 actually fixed the ccs code! trying to find a cool font that is also easy to read
30.08.24 changed the cursor! (from here ) to make more contrast with the background
07.09.24 made a welcome page! just for now tho... (also, still learning html!)
14.09.24 finally started to learn properly css. also, is my idea or it takes some time to actually apply css styles on here ?
15.09.24 played around changing colors and fonts!
16.09.24 added a "sorry we are just building this place" pic for the welcome page. it turned out very cool!!
19.09.24 learned the @font-face rule! "@font-face declaration doesn't follow the the fontspring bulletproof syntax..." ugh
20.09.24 it seems there is a new shed around the garden...
26.09.24 tested background sizes on paper
27.90.24 changed some fonts because you just couldn't understand them from afar and from mobile view ugh
06.10.24 added a credits section in the shed!
02.11.24 separated the different sections from the homepage (until now we have the gazebo, the maze and the shed)
04.11.24 finally added the garden background made by me! it took several tries, since it has been a while since i did some arts... the main pieces are made by me irl using a scrapbook style of mixing and matching old color papers and magazines i had and then scanning the final result. the details were added in picsart with free pngs i found on the web (credits to be added!)
07.11.24 edited some stuff about the garden background and the position of the links
09.11.24 changed the background of the garden entrance, and the links (yes or no options) format!
10.11.24 added some trees to the garden background... i totally forgot about the trees while adding the pngs lol
15.11.24 tried to add some images as the links but didn't quite like it
28.11.24 finally added the link to the other parts of the garden, the way i moved around all the link is quite archaic but it works so!!
29.11.24 added a moving tab title!
06.12.24 reorganized my folders (and also made a mess)
08.12.24 started makimg the visitor thingy
09.12.24 finished the visitor thingy (do you think it is actually accurate?)
12.12.24 edited the index page! let's welcome the bunnycat!!! (should we keep that name?)
30.12.24 redid the index page
01.01.25 added favicons
22.01.25 revamped the whole "the shed" section. this time i preferred editing the whole site in vs code and then exporting it here to neocities. way easier, but this will also mean less frequent updates! pretty proud of using flexbox for the first time... css grid is the next stop! also edited slightly the index page (again)
23.01.25 added "the shed" credits and edited a tiny bit the same page
20.02.25 revamped "the gazebo"! still in a pretty early construction state... but revamped nonetheless. added a cooler "under construction" file. also, edited a tiny bit "the shed" and "index" style. ("the gazebo" and "under construction" credits are due)
24.02.25 fixed a mistake with the garden's entrance bg pic
05.04.25 revamped the "under construction" corner
18.05.25 revamped the "index" corner, and added the due credits in "the shed"
21.05.25 added the final details to the "index" corner, edited a tiny bit the "under construction" corner and the due credits in "the shed"
