Text Post with Image
Not all posts with images are a photo post. Sometimes, you want to add a visual to written content. Simply put, there are many exceptions to the rules. Don’t feel like being defined by a category? Embrace that! Rather than coloring between or outside the lines, you’re allowed to slip between the cracks–finding another path as of yet undiscovered.
Who wouldn’t want plenty of visualization? Variety is the spice of life. Without seeing all the variables, we’re left with a colorless impression. Instead, allow this post to act as yet another example.

Shout out to any Harry Potter fans. Now, allow me to fill some space with words. There really should be a spell for this… yet then, as a muggle-born squib, I wouldn’t be able to use it. Oh! Such are the fickle ways of Fate!

Another Example Post
This time with words
Let’s face it: example posts are important. Why? There’s many reasons, but here’s a few…
Example Posts Having Meaning.
● They allow you to see what your blog will look like. Don’t you want to visualize your own posts? How are you going to do that without a preview? Example posts are the figurative tires of a theme inspection. Kick when ready.
● They help theme builders. While the ‘sample posts’ provided by Tumblr are helpful, nothing beats some fleshy faux content. Just look at all this writing!
● They just…look good. Alright, so I may be running out of things to talk about. Is that going to stop me? No! And if you think I’d forgotten about list-making, you’re wrong…
Behold: a list item! Enjoy it’s gloriously indented nature. This list refuses to follow the same margin as the mainstream paragraphs.
And what’s this? Another one? Goodness, I’m on a role. If you need a moment to collect yourself, I’ll understand. Such rambled beauty can be daunting for the newly initiated.

Imagine Using This Theme
“Shameless you are.” - Yoda (During an Imaginary Conversation)
● I see you’ve fallen into my trap. *Cue evil cackling* Yes, you couldn’t resist reading this ramble! Where you surprised to find an actually followable stream of words?
● I’m just as surprised as you are. Really, how else are you going to picture yourself using this theme unless I give you actual content. Granted, said content’s quality is questionable (being kind), but it’s better than a blank page.
● Again, I’m running out of words. Did you know humans can only focus for 35 minutes before needing a break? I’ve lasted about two. Then again, it islate…and I am typing random filler…
End Notes:
● I did this for you! Alright, I also typed this for myself. That being said, please know that I’m very bored and feeling very much like a student trying to reach my minimum word limit.

Very snazzy.
Oh my goodness, what is this sorcery? I'm pressing buttons on this flat metal slab and words are appearing on the screen!!! Is the computer reading my MIND??
Nope, it’s actually you sending yourself a phony message so you can make an example Q/A post. Thankfully, you do know how to use a computer. Still, I can completely imagine someone from a time before typewriters being wondrously baffled by the magic of my MacBook Pro.

Example Post About Cats
Cats are awesome. Admit it, anyone who ‘hates’ cats is clearly suffering from a serious case of denial. After all, once you get to know a Felis catus, they’re irresistible!
Some cats like water. Did you know that cats don’t naturally hate water. Most felines freak out, not because it’s water, but because they’re unaccustomed to the sensation. Cats have multiple layers of fur, giving them an essentially waterproof coat.
Note: My cat, Dexter, was a stray who’s undoubtedly found himself drenched in rain. Unlike my other cat, Zeno, he purred during his one and only bath. (He had flees.)
Cats are the introverts of the Animal Kingdom. Any hardcore introverts out there? Ever been accused of not caring about someone? While dogs–nature’s extrovert–prefer to be in a pack, cats–a solitary creature–need some alone time throughout the day. Still, that doesn’t mean a cat is incapable of love. Just search “Cat Protects…” on YouTube if you’re in doubt.
Catnip. Need I say more? Is there a dog equivalent? I don’t think so! More so, each cat has their own reaction to this strange plant. Some go crazy, others roll around. Some–like my cat, Zeno–eat it, then fall off their perch.
The purr. Used by mothers to comfort nervous kittens, cats purr throughout their entire lives. If you’re upset, some cats will purr to you. The amount of purring depends on the cat. Dexter, for example, will purr just because you looked at him. Zeno, however, makes it a challenge. (He also has different levels of purring: deep rumbles to high squeaky trills.)
Cats are self-sustaining. Someone once told me that if you leave a cat in the country, it’ll hunt. If you do it with a dog, however, it’d starve. While I hope this isn’t true, there’s something to be said for cats. Growing up, I had a cat named Buster (whom we called ‘Gaboo’.) Even though declawed, he still managed to climb trees, hunt squirrels, and kick the fluff out of any stray cats unfortunate enough to underestimate his awesomeness. Simply put, cats are survivors.
BONUS:
Things my cats have taught me…
Perseverance. Cats have a hard time with the concept of ‘No’. Simply put, if they want something, they’re going to find a way to get it. A closed door? Ha! Clearly, you’ve never heard of cats that can open doors.
The importance of body language. You’ve probably heard that the only reason cats meow is because humans don’t understand cat-talk. Did you also know that cats have a complex system of non-verbal language? My favorite is the slow blink. Imagine saying, “I love you.” Blink on ‘love’. If you do this with your cat, they’ll often blink back–showing their trust and love.
Comfy is key. Have I bribed my cats into favoring my room above others? Of course–cats also teach you to play dirty at times. A heated blanket is key. Not only will your cat love it, but you will too!

Just Filling the Space
…because I can.
Are you ready for this?
● Behold, a list item. Are the ‘●’ included? Nope. That’s something I add regardless of the theme. You’re welcome to use it if you like–or if you have a Mac, just go to the “Show Emoji & Symbols” option on your computer and use it that way.
● Why use it at all? I like to use it because it seems more organized (to me at least).

Theme Guide
So you like the theme and want to know more… Well, here’s your chance to learn some tips!
Borders
The default borders are set at 1px solid {color:Borders}. If you’d like to change them to–oh, perhaps–a dashed type, simply replace ‘solid’ with ‘dashed’.
Blockquotes
The default for this is the following:
font-family: {text:Body Font};
color: {color:Text}90;
To change these, simply replace the default value with your desired one. (Tip: use background: #yourcolorhere to change its background, too.)
