New Theme

On a whim, I decided to redo the desktop themes for this blog and @gamebunny-color-sp (maybe others too).

The old one had pretty much everything I liked in a theme: a search bar, a pagination in the sidebar where you can jump ahead multiple pages, little empty space, etc.

But, one thing it doesn't do well is accommodate how I write entire posts in the tags: they look pretty bad scrunched together, and often times they got so long that they appear behind other posts.

It also behaved strangely for audio posts made after tumblr's major updates, and posts with in-line videos.

This new theme fixes those problems and still has most of what I liked from the old one. I don't like that the pagination is at the bottom, but such as it is.

I think I worked out most of the aesthetic stuff, and I didn't notice any other major problems, but if you notice anything "off," please let me know, and I'll see if it's something I can fix~

#there is an alternate pagination for this theme that actually puts it in the sidebar like I prefer #but it only has a forward and back button rather than numbered pages #i'm still deciding which of the 2 i prefer #so if you check out my blog and the pagination is in the sidebar #then i changed my mind #i did try to frankenstein the numbered pagination to be where the sidebar pagination was #but it didn't work out~ i don't know too much about coding themes OTL #that said if you get this theme for yourself i did make 1 minor change to it: i changed the date formatting #i prefer to have the month written out vs only numbers #so i don't get confused or confuse others on which way the date is meant to be read #otherwise how you see my theme is how it should behave for you #i'm thinking about making a tag list for this blog #i didn't have one 'cus this is the 'junk blog' but it's becoming the one i use most so i might as well i guess...
