Fun Fact
Kazakhstan’s Minister of Communications and Informatics has blocked the Tumblr site because it contained 60 sites of terrorism, extremism, and pornography in 2015.
Been meaning to do this a long time ago (and actually started it but never finished it, lol) as a way to share some more information about my ocs without needing to use a custom page theme, but mostly because I haven't found any page theme that looks exactly as I want and allows this much customization.
There are two versions and both are almost exactly the same; but the example shown in the left has an 'appearance' section which is small and has few quick facts regarding the oc's appearance; while the example on the right has a 'moodboard' section instead which allows you to add more info about your oc.
You can change every section/title to fit your needs like I did in the examples below; I personally removed some categories as well and got rid of some connections as this oc doesn't have that many close friends/partners to fill the original template. However, I also included an extra separated 'connections' section in the download in case you want to add more people and more information.
I recommend you stick to square-shaped pictures so it's easier to fit them to each section. Also if and when you edit the information or section titles, please select only one line at a time to replace it so you don't lose the text format. (Titles shouldn't change because that's a single format/font within the same text box, but should it change you can always hit ctrl+z hehe) When you're done, I strongly recommend you save this as a .png instead of .jpg so it's the best possible quality!
Last but not least, this is a .psd file. So you'll need either Photoshop (I did this with Photoshop Portable, but it supports newer versions of PS and it *should* support older versions too) or Photopea to open and edit this file.

More info on how to use and edit this template below the cut!
Layers:
>Each layer is properly named and categorized. The general layers such as the background, the icon shape and background shapes are under the groups.
>If you don't want to see/don't need one of the connections' pictures and information, I recommend you find which one it is (1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6) and click on the eye symbol next to the layer to hide it so that way if you ever need it, it won't be truly gone.
>To edit a text section, simply find the layer (such as General Information>Left Column) and double click on the 'T' symbol next to the layer. That way it will open edit mode and allow you to edit the text, just don't hit delete or enter while everything is selected or you'll erase it :p
>Main text sections aren't separated, they're blocks of text. I recommend you don't remove the amount (for example, if you downloaded the version with the 'appearance' section, which has 5 sections of information, don't remove the fifth line.) Either leave it empty or replace it with another data, otherwise it will look weird. The 'general information' section might look good even if you remove a few lines, just don't get rid of the whole block of text.
Pictures:
>To add a new picture, simply paste it over this document and move it using the Move Tool.
>To frame it (so it becomes a circle or fits over the shape you want), make sure the picture layer is over the layer you want, then while holding alt click between the two layers. [For example, if you want to add a new main oc picture: 1) paste the pic you want, 2) move it with the Move Tool so it's covering the big circle, 3) once you've fully covered the shape (if it isn't you can resize it by right clicking on it then on 'free transform', sometimes you might need to hold shift to proportionally resize it) make sure the newly pasted pic layer is over the layer named "picture goes here", 4) hold the alt key and hover your mouse cursor over the line between your pic layer and the circle layer until you see an arrow going down symbol, once you see it click it and tah dah! your picture should now have the same shape as the circle! - you can further move it if it doesn't fit the way you want with the Move Tool (;
Others:
>You can change every color, font and section to your liking, just don't change the general layout of the template.

((The top sixteen... Number one is C. Number two is 15. Number three is P. Number four is 4. Number five is W. Number six is S. Number seven is E. Number eight is Z. Number nine is B. Number ten is N. Number eleven is F. Number twelve is Ψ. Number thirteen is... Number fourteen is P. Number fifteen is W. Number sixteen is V. Yes I'm being abstract but guessing is half the fun. Also it's easy to find if you check the spreadsheet and just search up percentages with ctrl+F.))
Okay so, I've had an idea. Y'know how the reason why the world's writing systems look so different is often because they were developed for writing on different materials? Well, to my knowledge, there hasn't ever been a writing system developed from the ground up for handwriting on a computer using a mouse. Which is a shame, because other writing systems are so ill-suited to mouse handwriting.
The Latin alphabet was originally carved into stone. But then a cursive script came around so it could be written on paper more easily. Who's to say the same can't happen with mouse handwriting?
So I tried my hand at making my own "computer cursive." Since precision with a mouse is much harder than with a pen, chisel, or stylus, I tried removing as much fine detail from the letters as I could while keeping them distinct and recognizable. Specifically, producing strokes of precise shapes is especially hard, so I prioritized making the arrangement of strokes recognizable, no matter how the strokes themselves ended up looking. Also, since long continuous lines are less than conducive to digital error correction (ctrl+z would remove a whole word instead of just a single letter or less), and because the risk of making an error gets quite high after only a short while of continuous marking, the term "computer cursive" ended up being something of a misnomer. It was best to keep letters disconnected from each other, thus not fulfilling the definition of a cursive script. However, "computer cursive" makes for a convenient shorthand that's reflective of the thought process behind its creation, so I'm sticking with it.
Anyway, here's what I came up with:
So first of all, it looks cool as shit if I do say so myself, though that's probably just because of the calligraphy pen brush I used (and I recommend you do the same if you ever try using this). But in seriousness, I'm very happy with how easy it is to recognize most of the letters here, and the rest are easy to get used to.
Some usage notes:
the letter c should start going diagonally down and left, and gradually curve further downwards. it doesn't matter how far it ends up curving, as long as the curve is noticeable
the letter k needs its bottom-right stroke to be curved as seen in the image, or it'll look too much like an h
yes, the letter o is a triangle. deal with it
p and q are distinguished by the lengths of their rightmost strokes: p's is longer (roughly as tall as the other stroke) and q's is shorter
r and v are distinguished in the same way: r's is longer (taller than the other stroke by a noticeable margin) and v's is shorter (more symmetrical). also, r's stem should technically be vertical while v should technically be completely symmetrical, but that isn't a feasible distinction to reliably make in practice, so don't worry about it
the letter s should start going diagonally up and left, and gradually curve down and around to start going diagonally down and right. it doesn't matter how far it ends up curving, as long as it fits this description
the letter u should start going straight down, or down and slightly right, and gradually curve further right. it doesn't matter how far it ends up curving, as long as the curve is noticeable
In general, don't worry too much about it looking tidy—it's specifically meant to be serviceable despite inevitably looking sloppy from time to time.
a gifmaking tutorial would actually be super appreciated :)
Okay, this is gonna get long and it might not be great but I will do my best to make it understandable.
Put under a read more cause we're not forcing anyone to look at all this.
We're gonna make this gif:
First of all you'll need 3 software programs downloaded.
4k downloader (to download videos)
Gomplayer (to get the frames from the videos)
Photoshop (I pay for it but there are other ways)
Some things to keep in mind
better quality video = better quality gifs
if you want videos in 4k you have to download them in MKV format as MP4s can't be 4k.
gifs can only contain 256 colours so gifs with a lot of different colours might get grainy.
if you use low quality videos or upscaled videos they sometimes have duplicate frames which will make the animations look weird, but you can easily remove those extra frames.
tumblr only accepts gifs under 10mb in size so all gifs have to be less than that (photos less than 20mb)
you can put up to 30 gifs/images in one post
ok here we go
Step 1: Download video
Step 2: Get the frames from the video
You will play the video using Gomplayer
Find the part you want to GIF
Press CTRL + G to bring up this menu
I haven't experimented much with there setting but you'll want to choose the place you want your frames to end up so you can find them later
4. Have the Capture all frames box checked (unless it's 60fps then do 0.03). You can capture up to 999 frames in one go.
5. Press "burst capture" and it will start getting the frames (video has to be playing) it will look like this.
6. Great you have your frames.
Step 3. Making a GIF
Open Photoshop
Load Files Into Stack
This will open the folders on your computer so navigate to where you put your frames and select the frames you want by clicking on the first and holding shift while clicking on the last.
3. Wait for PS to load the frames
4. Once it's all loaded the first thing you'll do is crop it. Press 'C' on your keyboard. There are a couple presets you can use or you can 'clear' that and crop however you wish.
I always crop out at least a little of the top and bottom cause there can be dark lines there.
5. Resize: for optimal quality on tumblr there are three sizes to keep in mind.
For sets like this with 3 gifs next to each other the width should be 177p, height does not matter.
For sets like this with 2 gifs next to each other the width should be 268p
And for a set like we're doing today with just 1 gif it's 540p
You'll want to memorise these numbers for future use.
177p, 268p or 540p will be the width of your gifs.
To open the resize menu you press CTRL + ALT + i
Change the width to in this case 540p (p as in pixels)
It will auto match the height to keep the same proportions.
Click OK and wait until it's done.
6. Make sure you have the 'timeline' window up at the bottom of your photoshop
7. Click 'create frame animation' (button might say video timeline but change that by pressing that little arrow next to it)
8. Press the button with three lines in the top right of the 'timeline' window and press 'make frames from layers'
9. The frames will have loaded in in reverse order so open the same menu and click 'reverse frames'
Step 4. Blurring the logo/text (optional)
Since we have a logo in there I will want to blur it but you might not have one or you don't care if there's a logo or text in your gifs.
First we have to make the gif into a smart object.
Select all layers by pressing CTRL + ALT + A
Convert into a 'video timeline' by pressing the button in the bottom left of the timeline window
3. Right click on your layers and click on 'convert to smart object'
4. Press Z to switch to the zoom and zoom in on your logo/text.
5. Press L to switch to the lasso tool and select your logo/text
there should now be a line where you selected.
6. Open 'Gaussian Blur'
7. Click OK
Now we have to get our GIF back to the frame timeline.
8. Click 'flatten frame into clips' using the timeline menu
9. Press 'delete' once to remove the smart object
10. Convert back to frame animation
11. Make frames from layers
No need to reverse this time. But now your logo/text is blurred, as long as it doesn't move but that's a topic for another day.
Step 5: Sharpening
If you didn't have something to blur let's go over smart objects again.
Select all layers by pressing CTRL + ALT + A
Convert into a 'video timeline' by pressing the button in the bottom left of the timeline window
3. Right click on your layers and click on 'convert to smart object'
5. Camera Raw Filter (Optional)
I use this for base editing of colours and the overall clearness of GIFs, it's not made for that tho it sometimes gets buggy. Works best on photos.
Press CTRL + SHIFT + A to open this.
It's best to do as little as possible in here as it can bug out.
I mostly mess with the effects, light and detail settings in here, don't touch the sharpening though cause we will use smart sharpen for that.
6. Smart Shapening
Most people have a sharpening action they use, including me. But you can also do it manually. You can find my actions in here.
To do it manually and make your own settings. This is how you open smart sharpen.
If you use my sharpening action remember it can be a bit much sometimes, in that case hide the second layer
Use an action or mess around to find a sharpening setting that looks good on your gif, usually don't need much.
Now we have to get our GIF back to the frame timeline.
7. Click 'flatten frame into clips' using the timeline menu (I'm low on images to use check the blur section for images)
It might take a minute since it has to process the new settings.
8. Press 'delete' once to remove the smart object
9. Convert back to frame animation
10. Make frames from layers
11. Select all your frames to set the framerate
You can click on any frame for this. Click 'other' and set it to 0,06.
12. Press CTRL + SHIFT + ALT + S to open 'Save for Web'
these are my save settings.
Click save and name and place it wherever you want it saved.
Congrats you've made a gif.
Step 6: Colouring
Now we have a problem cause there's already 30 images in this post.
For colouring I have a psd I use and adjust to the individual set. It's in my google drive you can find it here along with my actions.
If you're making several gifs from one video you'll want to adjust to the first and then copy that over to keep things matching.
We can go more in depth on this but that would have to be a different post since I can't put more images in this one.
Step 7: Watermark (optional)
A lot of GIF makers have watermarks these days as there's a lot of people who repost GIFs without credit. Make your own so people know the GIFs are yours even when posted elsewhere.
Step 8: Post
Post your hard work on your tumblr, use a bunch of tags so people have a higher chance of seeing it.
I hope this post was understandable and clear, let me know if you have any questions and if you want a proper colouring post.
Tumblr can now be installed as a progressive web app via Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge. To check it out, go to tumblr.com/dashboard in Chrome or Edge and click the install icon in the url bar on the far right side.
The post editor on web now supports some additional keyboard shortcuts: ctrl + shift + z inserts a link block, ctrl + shift + p inserts an image block (in Google Chrome only), alt + shift + p inserts an image block (all browsers), ctrl shift + L inserts an audio block, and finally ctrl + comma will transform selected text into the small format.
🛠 Fixed
Fixed a couple of issues with how the new web post editor handles “Biggest” text blocks, which could cause them to lose their formatting or be duplicated.
Fixed an issue in post editor where the block inserter icons would be incorrectly aligned in smaller browser windows.
Earlier this week, queued posts were publishing later than they were supposed to. That issue is now resolved.

Hello! Saw ur post about microsoft ruining your emojis. Have you tried making them backwards? My texting app has always done that to me so now i make many emojis backwards e.g. ): ):< :) >:) and i make the tongue sticking out emoji with a capital 'P' always for the same reason e.g. :P. Idk if it will work for you against microsoft but it's worth a shot!! Good luck! Also i hope you have a lovely day!
Omg I haven't tried that. You may just be a life saver anon. I used to be able to use ctrl+z and it would undo the automatic emoji, but that stopped working a few months back. I haven't found any settings to revert it where it stops auto-converting things so I just assumed the gig was up. But I will try them backwards!
I will have to get used to them being different but I find their backwardness charming lol

Los cambios en la página de configuración de los blogs en la versión web ya son visibles para todo el mundo.
¡Hemos publicado el resumen del año 2022 de Tumblr!
Ahora puedes instalar Tumblr como aplicación web progresiva a través de Google Chrome y Microsoft Edge. Si quieres echarle un vistazo, accede a tumblr.com/dashboard en Chrome o Edge y haz clic en el botón para instalarla que encontrarás en la parte derecha de la barra de direcciones.
El editor de publicaciones de la versión web ahora permite usar algunos atajos de teclado nuevos: Ctrl + Shift + Z añade un bloque de enlace; Ctrl + Shift + P inserta un bloque de imagen en Google Chrome y Alt + Shift + P lo hace en todos los navegadores; Ctrl + Shift + L añade un bloque de audio y, por último, Ctrl + , reducirá el tamaño del texto seleccionado.
🛠️ Mejoras y solución de problemas
Hemos hecho algunos cambios para que las publicaciones con imágenes de diferentes tamaños y proporciones se vean bien en el formulario de la versión web. Ahora, la vista previa coincide con cómo se mostrará el contenido en el Escritorio una vez publicado.
Las publicaciones de la pestaña «Tus etiquetas» ya no se actualizarán después de acceder a «Gestionar» (a menos que realmente modifiques algunas opciones).
Hemos corregido un error que hacía que mover una imagen dentro del formulario de publicación contara como haberla subido.
Hemos arreglado una incidencia que causaba que el botón «Seguir» de la página de blogs que sigues se dividiera en dos líneas para algunos idiomas.
Hemos solventado un par de problemas que hacían que los bloques de texto con el formato «Más grande» pudieran perder el formato o duplicarse en el nuevo editor de publicaciones de la versión web.
Los iconos del editor de publicaciones no aparecían bien alineados en las ventanas de navegador pequeñas. ¡Problema resuelto!
La semana pasada, las publicaciones en cola se publicaban más tarde de lo previsto, pero ya está solucionado.
🚧 En curso

Sooo NYCC panel happened, and Dragon Ball Magic/Daima is real!
Under the read more for the links, images, and some of my thoughts, analysis, etc...
First, the name: Daima 大魔 can be translated as big magic, large sorcery, big magic trick...And that 魔 symbol should look familiar to you guys, because it's the same MA from Piccolo DAIMAo, from MA Jr., from MAkkankosappo, from MAsenko, and from MAjin (magic people/population). It's the same word used for magic, sorcery, witchcraft, and hocus pocus style stuff. So... with or without demon connotation, just supernatural magic stuff :p
Then the continuity. When does this happen? There's no DBS refs at all in it, so there's speculation about it happening before DBS (but after the Buu saga since the Buu events are the origin of the story it seems). However... Kibito and Shin are defused. Did they defuse because of the wish? Or is it happening sometime after they get defused in DBS (different versions depending on manga or anime).
We don't know. I would say: we don't care. "Canon" is a lie. Official content (games, anime, manga, movies, tv specials, one shots, promo material, etc..) tend to steal from each other and reuse whatever is interesting for the following stories. Content is recycled and reused and readapted to fit whatever narrative of the current story beat (or arc/saga if we're generous) and that's it.
Oh btw you can watch it online, since Toei put it out!
youtube
Anyway let's get back to the plot:
Pretty sure these guys are Bibidi-Babidi related, and they hold a grudge against the gang because of the Buu situation (this is what they're watching).
They make a wish to make everyone young, and there's no transformations (!) so.. Goku has to use the PowerPole.
There's also a message from Toriyama himself, delivered by Iyoku:
Hello. I’m Akira Toriyama.
I’m currently working on a new Dragon Ball. The Title is “Dragon Ball DAIMA”.
Due to a conspiracy, Goku and his friends are turned small. In order to fix things, they’ll head off to a new world! It’s a grand adventure with intense action in an unknown and mysterious world.
Since Goku has to make up for his petite size, he uses his Nyoibo to fight, something not seen in a long time.
I came up with the story and settings, as well as a lot of the designs. I’m actually putting a lot more into this than usual!
Things will unfold that close in on the mysteries of the Dragon Ball world. Hope you enjoy these different-from-usual battles that are cute and powerful!!
— AKIRA TORIYAMA
He's far more involved in this than he ever was in DBS, sooooo.. !! Who knows. It's going to be similar to his modern style though, like Dragon Quest or SandLand.
Everyone's designs look amazing!
Look at Trunks and Goten! They will never age, they get CTRL-Z lol Same for Marron actually, she got back to being her Buu saga toddler self :o (note how Trunks is back at being purple, and not Blunks anymore...)
Anywaaaay!
The animation looks STUNNING. However! Goku's hair looks very stiff :(
Other than that, the series started production right when Dragon Quest Dai ended: that's what the animators are transitioning from.
Nakatsuru at the character design and corrections, Aya Komaki and Yoshitaka Yashima in the direction roles. Art direction is Takahashi Kurahashi (big background artist, did Yo SonGoku a while ago), and some GOATED names for the animation: Chikashi Kubota, Naohiro Shintani, Yuya Takahashi, Takeo Ide, and Miyako Tsuji. Kubota is the guy who did the 2D section of the intro for DBSSH btw. Kubota My beloved.
Anime AJAY did a whole thread about the production info he has so go check it out.
Kid versions of everyone look super cute, but there was no Gohan on sight. It has to take place "after the Buu saga", but considering the designs, I do think this is kinda meant to be before Pan and Bra were born.
Also I smell Demon lore.
Much interest on my end because it looks amazing even if it's not the serious type of story I usually enjoy. But it looks so good!
Also yeah, DBS Broly and DBSSH is "let's reuse the OG Broly Trilogy", so this is let's reuse/repurpose GT?
