Sick of Tumblr blocking your posts in search because they have external links to your portfolio, patreon, twitter or whatever? Yeah me too.
But there’s a way around it!
FIRST > Edit / customise your theme (the desktop version, aka the actual HTML and CSS junk) Find this button:
Add your page like you would for other pages! Except on the drop down select “Redirect”!
The insert on the right is what will appear on the preview side on the right. Here I’ve put in my twitter! Fill it out and give the page URL something lowercase and easy to remember (like /twitter)
Post your stuff how you would normally. Unfortunately using the bottom left ‘source url’ button on the image as usual itself still gets censored (seriously fuck you Tumblr what the fuck).
Link your sites as you would normally EXCEPT we use the tumblr link (for me it’s the above!). If you use a domain name, you WILL need to use your tumblr URL rather than yourname.com/redirect ! This will link people to my twitter but still show up in /tagged/ and /search/
Your stuff will now should show up! This doesn’t seem to work for editing older posts but I haven’t tested that out fully.
And lastly
Fuck you tumblr

LYCI FOUND A WORKAROUND TO THE PROBLEM!!!!! spread this to raise awareness on how tumblr users can keep using the tag/search engine to their advantage.
Hey everyone! So my computer is finally kicking the bucket, and because of that I’m going to be deeper in the financial hole than usual. Screen is on the fritz, processing power is whack, photoshop howls in pain while trying to open files and then blackscreens and dies, can’t do digital art without it crashing, etc.
SO I am opening up commissions for watercolors paintings!
It would be $50 for a painting like these:
and $90 for a painting with a background, like this:
I’m going to be opening five commission slotsfor the time being 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
SO if watercolor paintings float your boat, AND you want to continue seeing this, and other kinds of art from me (like all the digital stuff I do) consider commissioning me or referring me to a friend!
A helicopter catches and carries away a person, likely mistaking them for a rock. Luckily, as is usual in these cases, they were later recovered unharmed… although a fair distance away from where they started.
Indeed! it’s really interesting how the reintroduction of native fauna can be a long term solution to soil erosion (which ofc had caused the near disaster @ oroville). [cit]
