Don't post you art on Tumblr as PNGs!
Ok this is important: Tumblr, at least in my experience, will desaturate PNG images but not JPEGs! For proof here's screenshots of some of my art as both a PNG and a JPEG on Tumblr.
Top is PNG, bottom is JPEG. Notice the difference, especially on warm colors.

PNGs might be better for storing images but please upload them to Tumblr as JPEGs!

I never really thought I'd have to grapple with the existential crisis of knowing every single thing I've drawn in the last five years is. Wrong. I put it EVERYWHERE and it's all off can you fucking imagine. It's my icon and my banner and all over every blog I've ever made and my toyhouse has THOUSANDS of images and the COMMISSIONS. I GOT PAID FOR ART THAT LOOKED WRONG? AND PEOPLE NOTICED?

sigh. this.

what's naboo like? naboo is beautiful this time of year. it's always beautiful. naboo has great green fields, oceans of sweet smelling grass, old trees draped in vines blossoming into bright flowers, explosions of colour. theed is lovely; sunwarmed golden stone, streets lined with flower boxes and trees, graceful marble statues and verdigris green roofs. isn't it so beautiful. they have a tradition there, of young queens. it's a little odd, but naboo is so beautiful, so perfect, so idyllic, how could anything be wrong? what happens to those queens after they rule? well, they do other things, I'm sure. look at the lakes, so tranquil, so peaceful. morning mist rising and burning away in the sun. dew drops caught on spider's webs. what things? they retire, surely. listen to the birds. it's nothing bad, naboo is so beautiful. and it works, clearly. look at the planet! what's the palace like? oh majestic. golden stone and green domes, pillars and walkways and carpets of honeysuckle and ivy clambering up the walls. roses bloom, sweet and scented in the garden, lavender explodes out of urns, the pillars are pink marble, the main plaza has a tree lined walkway, so so beautiful, and the fountains! like nothing you've ever seen before. lovely. perfect. what's inside the palace? only the queen and her handmaidens are allowed in. you have to allow them their traditions.
maybe, inside the palace is a monster. maybe, inside the palace the shutters are drawn over the windows, and then curtains drawn over those. maybe, inside the palace it is soundless, oppressively quiet. maybe, inside the palace is something that is hungry. something that has made a deal. something that is waiting. maybe, queens and their handmaidens are identical to buy them a little more time, maybe the queen who (sometimes) emerges at the end of her tenure is the same girl who went in. maybe she isn't. maybe the handmaidens don't return for a reason, maybe they walk pretty to their deaths wearing the dress that they will die in.
but naboo is so beautiful, how could any of that be true?

Hi hi hi! Not really a request but I wanted to know how you make your tumblr dividers, especially the pretty moving ones! I literally adore your little bakery here to pieces 😭
hii sweet anon!! thanks so much for liking my blog I appreciate it sooo much!! ♡︎♡︎ so to make the dividers themselves I just use picsart (the app) and use either: stickers from the stickers section, pngs from pinterest, or sometimes I draw stuff! But overall I always use picsart! I also make sure the background is transparent!
Then for the gifs I use ezgif (a website)! For an example I’ll use this gif I made (not a divider but the same logic applies!): It’s really just 5 frames and I made it by saving these images (made on picsart) and plugging them into ezgif:

outcome: (i also desaturated it on ezgif, there’s lots of things you can do to edit gifs on there!)

if you want me to go more in depth or if you’re confused and need clarification let me know! this is just a summarized explanation basically :>

Hey I wanted to know if tumblr still reduces the saturation on your images
I just noticed some of my drawings look more dull when I post them
Ok so I discovered that my problem was actually photoshop. I figured out I had to save my pngs thru Export -> quick save png so that my pictures were not desaturated. It seems that this has fixed my problem!
Idk if this is your problem though, i am unsure if Tumblr lowers the saturation as well and idk how to combat that sorry :P

i saw what you said about the procreate exporting thing with desaturated colors and it happens to me too its SO ANNOYING, but i think there's a solution? idk i tried it once and it kinda worked. Basically procreate exports the thing with ok colors, but when you upload them to say tumblr or whatever, thats when they get desaturated, if that's your case, you can save the png, then import it into ibis paint for example (its free and its an ok app) and then redownload it from there, that way the colors will stay intact i believe
OO thats an interesting tactic , I have ibisPaint so I’ll have to try that for next time !! Thank you sm for the suggestion !!

i think i am going to actually go insane
every program on my computer is displaying images differently
if i take a snipping tool snippet and paste it, it becomes desaturated. but if i go to the original place it automatically saves snips, it looks fine.
photoshop is more desaturated than my firefox browser window
if i download a photo from the internet, open it in photoshop, and make no changes but press save, then reupload it to the internet through imgur, it is desaturated like in photoshop
if i upload it to tumblr it looks fine
......nevermind this time upon uploading it to imgur it did not keep the photoshop desaturation EDIT: if i upload it to discord it is desaturated tho. edit again nevermind it's ALL of discord that's desaturated
but to prove my point, image / image after i used snipping tool and then pasted that into the post / image from the automatically saved snipping tool screenshot
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
i just wanted to give my neopet's petpet a transparent background instead of the white box.
this is the image if i copy the contents in photoshop then paste it / if i use the snipping tool to snip the photoshop document then paste it / the saved snipping tool screenshot
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
yet when i saved the photoshop doc as a png and uploaded it it did in fact look like the very first one posted.
I JUST WANTED TO GIVE MY NEOPET'S PETPET A TRANSPARENT BACKGROUND INSTEAD OF A WHITE BOX.

Is there anyway to save the colors of your art when you post them on twitter and tumblr cus I noticed as soon as I upload a .png or whatever the color tint desaturates by a SMIDGE >:(

Can you please reblog Darkdragonsouls addition to your desaturation post? It's very useful and it's spread would help counteract the number of artist's I've seen feeling demoralized or angry. Multiple people in different Discord servers have been sharing your post, and I've had to redirect them to try and help them avoid brashly changing settings they don't understand. Thanks! 
Took me fucking AGES to find the post you were talking about, Tumblr search function sucks so bad oh my god. Thanks for being so polite about this though!
That being said, I don't think I'll be sharing it solely because. Well, it is a nice explanation about the different color settings, but it seems like the main point of the post was to be careful when printing things. I am very much not printing things, and I'm willing to bet 99% of the people leaving comments about their characters reference sheets are also not planning on printing things
Having your art printed in general takes SO much work and research into how best to save the image anyway (as someone who's printed dozens of my own pieces), and I'm really hoping people would be doing that research anyway, but for purely digital art purposes, maintaining that saturation still seems important to me (you're not even supposed to print pngs anyway, 99% sure you're supposed to be using TIFF)
That being said, feel free to keep sharing it around yourself if you feel it's important! I never really thought a post I made would get this big, and it was DEFINITELY something I made in a fit of utter rage and despair at the situation, so there was a lot of nuance I couldn't keep track of. I am admittedly a little worried for the people in the comments who are changing the setting and calling it good without fully checking whether or not it worked for them, but there's nothing I can do about that. The post has gone way farther than I ever thought it would, and with the wide variety of people claiming to have the same problem, I feel like it's more on a case-by-case basis of how your device and your program uses colors
(also, despite what the notes on the post would have you believe, I don't actually have a lot of followers here and I doubt me reblogging a single post would actually get it to spread very far)

A little while ago I managed to figure out how to make Tumblr not desaturate my art. I needed to upload jpegs instead of pngs. So since the art I rebloged to this blog is still desaturated, I'm probably going to delete it and re-reblog it to this blog
