hipster cool and funky fresh rp resources.Short list of things to help with tumblr rpers. Some of these things can probably be found on various other rp help blogs but these are things that I have picked up/figured out/or personally use while roleplaying on tumblr. So ya know, here ya are.
Aesthetic based resources;
- messletters —- you can find symbols, edit your text to look really coolin about a million ways and just about anything else text based here.
- visitor/online tracker —- you can customize this however you’d like, it’s just a tracker that shows how many people are viewing your page at the time.
- follower tracker —- same site and works the same as the online tracker. Displays and tracks your followers in case you’re into that.
- cursors-4u —- cursors! just pick the cursor you want, and copy the code you want, and from there follow the application instructions. Usually it’s just to post them into your description or your custom html.
RPers dash help;
- xkit —- hopefully you know about this but if not bless you poor baby here is xkit. it’s an extension for tumblr that will fix your dash and more basically.
- Reblogging as text —-this is important for anyone knew to rping who reblogs as a link and can’t figure out when the post theiy’re reblogging is being cut off.
- Trimming your posts —- please trim your posts, geesh.
Other things;
- befunky —-a very good, free resource where you can edit icons; you can make them beautiful, round the corners, do whatever you want here. Helpful if your muse has a little known fc and you have to make your own icons, but don’t have PS.
- tumblr static img uploader —-if you’re editing a page and you need to use image urls to insert your images, it’s useful to put them into tumblrs static image uploader first. That way you don’t lose them if the original site or poster deletes the image, and tumblrs static uploader is hosting, so it will load quickly~.
- theme-hunter —-really the only theme resource I use; I get all of my themes and pages from here about 99% of the time.
- kiwi6 —- it’s a site that you can hotlink music from as an alternative to dropboxing your music into a music player for tumblr. It’s quick and easy and it stores all of the songs you upload.
- billy music player —- a small, easy to use music player that’s pretty popular on tumblr. As long as you use a hotlinked song (from dropbox or kiwi6) they should play without buffering and you just post the embedded code into your description box.
