omg ur tumblr website is so ??!?!?!??!?!!!!?!?! like how to do you that im sobbing its so beautiful T-T

hi anonnie!! thank you for the compliment, i'll let you know it's very easy!!!

for reference, this is my tumblr page/website thingy:

to find themes like these, i personally go to @/theme-hunter and search for a code i like. the theme i'm using is by @/xuethms, and this is the post to it.

using a theme is actually pretty easy!!! i don't recommend doing it on mobile, since it is difficult to edit desktop themes there. however, use whatever device you have on hand!

now, you go to blog settings and enable custom themes. select edit theme and tumblr will take you to this page:

you go to the text next to the blue box on the left side on your screen that says Edit HTML. there you'll get a bunch of code that you can then select Ctrl + A and delete. don't worry!!!! your tumblr is still there, you just need to copy and paste the HTML code of the theme you've chosen. from then on you can go and scroll down on the left side of the screen to edit your theme!!! if need be, you can get the hex from images you use for your theme here.

there are theme codes you might need to pay for. it's best to support creators!! however, if you are unable to, you can always go off and reblog the creator's post <3

to add, i'd say you need basic HTML code knowledge when editing your desktop theme. when you do pages and stuff (which is this) you'll need some of it and you can find posts like these to get started.

w3schools is a good website to dive into if you want more basic knowledge of HTML. you might need to allocate some time to learn it in all seriousness because most of the time, you're staring at a string of letters and numbers LOL.

you can obtain images from pinterest, but i recommend getting yours from these links in this post here.

also: some themes might be outdated to due tumblr changing their code on the website (or something along the lines)... all i know is that themes with javascript are unable to be used, so make sure to double check!!!

once again anon thanks for the compliment <3
