The link hover effect (From My Reader's Emails)
This is about your absolutely wonderful A day Without Chocolate template.
I'll take the liberty of asking you a favour. Is there some way I could use the link-hover effect in that template on my blog? Just that.
It would be great if you could help.
Sanyukta, that is a easy little bit of code to do. Go to your template and find this bit of code:
a:hover {Replace it with this code:
color:$titlecolor;
text-decoration:none;
}
a:hover {You will probably want to change the colors. #FADADD is the color behind the text and #987654 is the text color. If you need help with finding the right color, I have several links in my sidebar under +/- Graphics, including 500+ Colours which is a good place to start. If you need to change any of the other aspects of the link, like the link color or the visited link color, do so in the Dashboard | Layout | Fonts and Colors area.
background-color: #FADADD;
color: #987654;
text-decoration: none;
}

Thanks annie :) I'd tried something like this too, but at that time it didn't work. Maybe i'd messed up the code or it was a blogger glitch...anyways, works just fine now. Cool.
Thanks again!
Hey Annie
I came across Plurk (www.plurk.com) which is another miniblogging service. Could there be way to install a feed of that on your blog, like twitter?I checked that site out..but there doesn't seem to be any..but I'm not very sure..maybe you could check it out...
:)
Many thanks!
Dear delicious Annie, I just bumped into your site via Entrecard. I am totally smitten with the gracious volumes of assistance you're putting out here! MY GOODNESS. And I just think your page is so calming...the colors the fonts..perfect. I believe in telling someone immediately when I think something is just "on spot" and that is why I send you this. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this! And I will bookmark your site right away. Thank you darling woman. Thank you!

Lovely blog, and so helpful. Against my will, intentions and better judgment, I'm learning something about html. I hate to admit it, but it's useful.
Funny -- I don't like the link hover effect. I seem to get caught up in it whenever I hover
I just want to say this. I love your blog.
Thanks again Annie.
Your tips are really great. I will try this one out soon.
That's wonderful, it gives something more to the blog that makes it different, and I love that ! Thanks very very much.
I'm gonna change my layout and I think I'll use it.
Your blog is quite useful and very nice, I really like it.
Thx once more !
Hi ! I have a problem : I have some images as links and I don't want the effect to appear on them (see my blog ! =) )
How can I do ?
Link hover effect is a great way to give your readers further information about the link...also it will make it easier for you to identify which link it points or directed to without having you to leave the current page you are reading.
