Garden in full bloom!

Submitted by admin on Wed, 2010-05-05 01:06 My Gallery

The "Let's get growing" flower and butterfly rangolis have been published. Please click on the flower-labels to see the preview of the rangoli. The butterfly tags should lead you to the butterfly rangolis. If you have submitted more than a few rangolis, there might still be one or two rangolis saved up for publishing sometime next week. Since there are more than twenty rangolis, we wouldn't be publishing any more rangolis for this week. I'm sure the fragrance and the sight of these garden beauties is going to keep you too busy for the entire week! There might be a couple of "mistakes" on our part, which we'll fix tomorrow.

Enjoy! Smile

Yes, everyone has done a fabulous job in creating their flower/butterfly. Smile

Looks like the commenting section got disconnected from the individual rangolis, in our garden page. We're trying to fix it. You should be able to comment in the individual flowers, in a couple of hours from now...

The preview that shows up inside the garden now includes the buttons to go the comments page. The close button closes the preview image.

Please refresh the garden page in your browser if you don't see these two blue buttons when viewing the rangolis.

For ease of browsing, latAjI, could you give a link to this on the front page for some time? Thanks.

Ever since the theme got introduced, a link has always been on the front page. It can be seen as an icon with a "its planting time" banner over a cat on a soil-patch, upon the vertical banner on the right.

OMG now when will I finish looking at everyone's creations. Till today I was so eager to see everything and suddenly there is so much to see and I don't know where to start from and when I will be able to actually comment for all. There is so much happening at home too. My naathi's son's wedding is 2 1/2 weeks from today and work is in full swing. My mum is in the process of finalising a new house and I have to plan everything for her (housewarming, makeover for the entire house etc.), my sister and her hubby are going to be down from USA next week for a two month holiday which means guests at home, outings etc, etc. etc... Won't be able to log in everyday like before and I will miss so much. Waaaaaaaaaaa :O Am I talking too much now?? Well that's my status as of now. Please dear friends don't mistake if you don't find my comments immediately. As and when I find time to log in I will definitely stop by and post my views for each and every kolam that has been uploaded. It is a promise. Till then please bear with me - I know you will for sure Smile

I'm so excited to see the garden.. Thanks Lata and another Admin (whose name I'm not sure about) for making ikolam more interesting.. The layout of the garden and the icon appearing on the right top of the kolam is something new to me and wanted to appreciate your efforts. Inspite of your busy schedule you keep on upgrading the looks and the content of the site.. Great work.. Keep rocking..

P.S.
On the lighter side...
எல்லாம் நன்றாக தான் இருக்கு என்ன ஒரே ஒரு குறை.. ஹி ஹீ அழகான தோட்டத்தை திறக்க என்னை சிறப்பு விருந்தினராக கூப்பிட்டு ரிப்பன் வெட்ட சொல்விங்கன்னு நினைச்சேன், அதுக்குள்ள திறந்துவிட்டிங்களே.. நான் கொஞ்சம் தாமதம் தான், கடைசி பெஞ்ச்லிருந்து வரணும்ல.
