SORRY IK THIS ISN'T A QUESTION I SHOULD ASK- but i'm making a bog and when i looked at urs i noticed for ur pinned post you made one of the words' the font a baby blue (the sinners welcome u), which confused me bc tumblr has colours without a range of hues (except for the blog title). So I was curious...how did you do it?

I can defo tell this is not a question you would have expected in ur inbox bae

it's super easy!

The method I use is mostly applicable to the mobile website, but I'm sure you can use it on desktop and the app as well.

First, type out whatever you want in your tumblr post.

Next, head to this website.

Type or paste your text into the upper bar and choose your colours. To get the text all baby blue, I chose solid colour from the drop down menu.

Next, copy the HTML code it generates.

On your tumblr post, you're going to press the little setting button in the upper corner. Where it says rich text, you're going to change it to HTML.

Your post is going to look really scary but don't worry! You're going to select the text you want and then replace it with the code you copied.

Once you've done that, press the preview button and you'll be able to edit like normal! This is particularly fun if you want to use gradient text or if you just want more fun colours

🌟 New

On /search pages on the web, we moved the search bar from the sidebar to the center/main section of the page.

For folks in the aforementioned reblog header redesign experiment, we added avatars back to posts from group blogs when the option to show author portraits is enabled.

When blocking a blog via a submission in your inbox on the web, you can now block from both your secondary (if it was the recipient) and your primary blog.

On the web, we have made some improvements to localized number formatting across all supported languages.

On the web, logged out users browsing a blog view will sometimes be prompted to log in after scrolling for some time.

We are testing out showing the “You’re all caught up!” carousel to folks with “Best stuff first” enabled.

🛠 Fixed

On the web, we’ve made some improvements to the post header in compact posts (like when they’re displayed in a grid on the Explore page, for example). Long blog names, badges, and the follow button no longer break onto a new line in the middle of a word, and each element remains properly aligned in the header.

We fixed an issue that caused a bullet point to appear next to the Blogs menu item when using Safari.

We’ve made some headway in fixing various issues relating to undo/redo in the post editor on web. You should notice improved stability when using undo and redo in the editor.

On the web, we fixed an issue where avatars from anonymous asks were empty.

On the web, we fixed an issue affecting the HTML and Markdown modes in the post editor where select all would sometimes select text outside of the editor.

We fixed an issue affecting some users where starting a search with a hashtag (#) would return search results instead of results for that tag.

🚧 Ongoing

We are hard at work updating our docs. If you see anything confusing or out-of-date, please send some feedback!

🌱 Upcoming

Nothing to share today.

Experiencing an issue? File a Support Request and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can!

NUCLEAR WINTER - $10

Nuclear Winter is a moody blue monotone skin that was previously made specially for and used on a post-apocalyptic Fallout roleplay a few years ago.

There are comments scattered throughout the stylesheet and written HTML to help you navigate what to edit (if you wish to use it as is) and what not to edit it.

This skin comes with:

- A pre-installed UserWay accessibility menu. - A collapsible sidebar that's easy to read and navigate with a pop-out login box. - A removable news section with a scrollable news ticker, wanted ad listings in the form of icons, and staff icons. Beneath these three columns is the navigation bar. - Trigger warning fields that, when filled out, precede a post to warn users of potentially triggering material within. - A main profile flush with customizable fields to help fit whatever genre of site you decide to use this skin on. This profile has a header, with places for a character name and face claim, links to noteworthy information, the forum avatar listed on the side, an OOC section, and an awards section that scrolls vertically upon overflow. - An isotope members row that allows you to sort by member names. Custom fields that can be found on this skin and modified accordingly are: age, gender, pronouns, residence, morality, height, faction, occupation, species, OOC alias, OOC age, OOC pronouns, OOC timezone, maturity/content rating, and OOC trigger warnings.

Graphics for this skin that will be auto-resized are: a 350x700px header image of character, a 350x200px avatar image, a 200x200px gif icon, and a 110x50px gif icon for the mini profile.

For the optional news banner on the index: 50x50px wanted ad icons and 40x40px staff icons.

shameless self promotion sunday

tagged by @foxboyclit and @thegreatobsesso, thank you both!

i love all my fics but also i do in fact do other things sometimes, and i’m really quite proud of my little neocities site. it’s not perfect, and it’s very much a work in progress, but the parts that are done I really like!

i have all my fic up on there, and a load of my playlists (with meta commentary on some!), plus I made sections for Obedience and obsession that have some very neat looking character pages...i love tinkering with html and css, and i love having a project that is purely for fun and not remotely about demonstrating any kind of skill.

i've really enjoyed solving such puzzles as 'how to make a horizontal menu bar' and 'how to make a reactive image grid'

anyway i just like my lil hand-coded stick-figure of a website, and if anyone else has a neocities let me know, i wanna put you in my list of friend links~

no-pressure tagging @oh-no-another-idea @chauceryfairytales @reneesbooks and @talesfromaurea to do some shameless self promotion (on a sunday or any other day, all days are good for singing your own praises)

[ne0nwithazero]

How did you learn to code your website on neocities? You have one of the most amazing and unique sites I've ever seen, it's such a wonderful personalized corner of the internet!

Thank you :)

W3Schools is an amazing resource for coding and finding HTML, CSS and JS scripts!

You can pretty much just google "How to make a navigation bar" or how to make a dropdown menu or anything you want and there's usually a w3schools link that can help you with it!

Another tip I can offer is to learn how to use your browser's Inspect Tool option (Usually accessed by pressing F12)

Studying how websites are made or trying to see how someone coded a specific thing

It also allows you to test CSS directly if you want to see how something is going to look right away

Overall my biggest tip is to make it fun for yourself! There is a bit of learning curve at the beginning, but once you get past it, it gets really fun!

[stimuwrite]

StimuWrite 2.3 is here, please update your version!

I worked hard on this version to add a bunch of new features and improvements, the most exciting of which is the Addon System and Manage Themes & Addons panel! Previously, the only addons available where to add new language fonts, but that will change soon. I've already completed a couple addons that will be launching on itchio very shortly that you will be able to use to extended StimuWrite even further. The app should also be FASTER and more performant! If it's noticeable for you please let me know, I would love that.

The updates

New:

New Manage Themes & Addons panel allows users to delete individual themes and addons, this can be found in the Options menu. No more deleting everything to remove or reinstall one theme!

New compact mode that can be activated once the side panel is closed with the notch button next to the word count goal input

7 new heart colors added in Emoji Options, they go great with the free pride themes!

Addon system and menu bar. Addons coming! Once installed, you will be able to find them in a collapsed menu on the bottom left corner of the app (or the right if you have switched the emoji placement)

Improved:

Your work is automatically exported upon closing the program, if you've selected an export folder

Improvements to the custom emoji interface to make it more clear wtf is going on

Delete all settings and files button actually deletes everything and puts the themes and addons in system trash instead of permanently deleting them

Rich text export now exports HTML files instead of markdown files (just rename your txt files to get markdown files instead)

Lots of performance optimizations to make it FASTER! SNAPPIER! (please please please let me know if it's running better for you lol)

Bug fixes:

Multiple bugs fixed with unexpected custom/theme emoji behavior

Bug fixed where text was sometimes cut off when changing font or increasing it's size

Bug fixed where double dashes weren't being converted to em dash if typing middle of text

Bug fixed where words weren't being counted when typing in the middle of a document

Bug fixed where stimuwrite would accept gamepad inputs

How to enter "Compact Mode"

ICYMI: Free pride theme pack!

In case you missed it, last month I released a free theme pack with 8 colorful themes to celebrate pride! If you've ever wanted StimuWrite themes but haven't had the $$ to get some, this is a great opportunity. You can find it here: https://thatclowngoddess.itch.io/pride-theme-pack-for-stimuwrite

How to Back up a Tumblr Blog

This will be a long post.

Big thank you to @afairmaiden for doing so much of the legwork on this topic. Some of these instructions are copied from her verbatim.

Now, we all know that tumblr has an export function that theoretially allows you to export the contents of your blog. However, this function has several problems including no progress bar (such that it appears to hang for 30+ hours) and when you do finally download the gargantuan file, the blog posts cannot be browsed in any way resembling the original blog structure, searched by tag, etc.

What we found is a tool built for website archiving/mirroring called httrack. Obviously this is a big project when considering a large tumblr blog, but there are some ways to help keep it manageable. Details under the cut.

How to download your blog with HTTrack:

Website here

You will need:

A reliable computer and a good internet connection.

Time and space. For around 40,000 posts, expect 48 hours and 40GB. 6000 posts ≈ 10 hours, 12GB. If possible, test this on a small blog before jumping into a major project. There is an option to stop and continue an interrupted download later, but this may or may not actually resume where it left off. Keep in mind that Tumblr is a highly dynamic website with things changing all the time (notes, icons, pages being updated with every post, etc).

A custom theme. It doesn't have to be pretty, but it does need to be functional. That said, there are a few things you may want to make sure are in your theme before starting to archive:

the drop down meatball menu on posts with the date they were posted

tags visible on your theme, visible from your blog's main page

no icon images on posts/notes (They may be small, but keep in mind there are thousands of them, so if nothing else, they'll take up time. Instructions on how to exclude them below.)

Limitations: This will not save your liked or private posts, or messages. Poll results also may not show up.

What to expect from HTTrack:

HTTrack will mirror your blog locally by creating a series of linked HTML files that you can browse with your browser even if tumblr were to entirely go down. The link structure mimics the site structure, so you should be able to browse your own blog as if you had typed in the url of your custom theme into the browser. Some elements may not appear or load, and much of the following instructions are dedicated to making sure that you download the right images without downloading too many unnecessary images.

There will be a fair bit of redundancy as it will save:

individual posts pages for all your tags, such as tagged/me etc (If you tend to write a lot in your tags, you may want to save time and space by skipping this option. Instructions below.)

the day folder (if you have the meatball menu)

regular blog pages (page/1 etc)

How it works: HTTrack will be going through your url and saving the contents of every sub directory. In your file explorer this will look like a series of nested folders.

How to Start

Download and run HTTrack.

In your file directory, create an overarching folder for the project in some drive with a lot of space.

Start a new project. Select this folder in HTTrack as the save location for your project. Name your project.

For the url, enter https://[blogname].tumblr.com. Without the https:// you'll get a robots.txt error and it won't save anything.

Settings:

Open settings. Under "scan rules":

Check the box for filetypes .gif etc. Make sure the box for .zip etc. is unchecked. Check the box for .mov etc.

Under "limits":

Change the max speed to between 100,000 - 250,000. The reason this needs to be limited is because you could accidentally DDOS the website you are downloading. Do not DDOS tumblr.

Change the link limit to maybe 200,000-300,000 for a cutoff on a large blog, according to @afairmaiden. This limit is to prevent you from accidentally having a project that goes on infinitely due to redundancy or due to getting misdirected and suddenly trying to download the entirety of wikipedia.

Go through the other tabs. Check the box that says "Get HTML first". Uncheck "find every link". Uncheck "get linked non-html files". If you don't want to download literally the entire internet. Check "save all items in cache as well as HTML". Check "disconnect when finished".

Go back to Scan Rules.

There will be a large text box. In this box we place a sort of blacklist and whitelist for filetypes.

Paste the following text into that box.

+*.mp4 +*.gifv -*x-callback-url* -*/sharer/* -*/amp -*tumblr.com/image* -*/photoset_iframe/*

Optional:

-*/tagged/* (if you don't want to save pages for all your tags.)

-*/post/* (if you don't want to save each post individually. not recommended if you have readmores that redirect to individual posts.)

-*/day/* (if you don't feel it's necessary to search by date)

Optional but recommended:

-*/s64x64u*.jpg -*tumblr_*_64.jpg -*avatar_*_64.jpg -*/s16x16u*.jpg -*tumblr_*_16*.jpg -*avatar_*_16.jpg -*/s64x64u*.gif -*tumblr_*_64.gif -*avatar_*_64.gif -*/s16x16u*.gif -*tumblr_*_16.gif -*avatar_*_16.gif

This will prevent the downloading of icons/avatars, which tend to be extremely redundant as each image downloads a separate time for each appearance.

Many icons are in .pnj format and therefore won't download unless you add the extension (+*.pnj), so you may be able to whitelist the URLs for your and your friends' icons. (Honestly, editing your theme to remove icons from your notes may be the simpler solution here.)

You should now be ready to start.

Make sure your computer doesn't overheat during the extremely long download process.

Pages tend to be among the last things to save. If you have infinite scroll on, your first page (index.html) may not have a link to page 2, but your pages will be in the folder.

Shortly after your pages are done, you may see the link progress start over. This may be to check that everything is complete. At this point, it should be safe to click cancel if you want to stop, but you run the risk of more stuff being missing. You will need to wait a few minutes for pending transfers to be competed.

Once you're done, you'll want to check for: Files without an extension.

Start with your pages folder, sort items by file type, and look for ones that are simply listed as "file" rather than HTML. Add the appropriate extension (in this case, .html) and check to see if it works. (This may cause links to this page to appear broken.)

Next, sort by file size and check for 0B files. HTMLs will appear as a blank page. Delete these. Empty folders. View files as large icons to find these quickly.

If possible, make a backup copy of your project file and folder, especially if you have a fairly complete download and you want to update it.

Finally, turn off your computer and let it rest.

for Necrotech99, is there an archive or a filter someplace so we can just read the story, without all the interspersed comments and stuff? I've tried to get into it several times but I just get really lost trying to figure out what I'm supposed to read or not?

i would like to eventually put together something like that for each chapter as it closes (like a pdf or an html file or something on itch.io; haven't done it before but with nt99 i will!) BUT, in the meantime, my tips: either Ctrl+F my author tag "FRACTAL" on desktop (on mobile i think "find on page" is usually accessible either via the address bar or the three-dot options menu in ur browser), and use that to jump between posts that have my author tag; OR, just scroll til you see images!! in necrotech99 update posts will always have images.
