1. @staff made a post pretty much saying “Your stuff isn’t getting deleted, just hidden from everyone but you” and “Yeah we know you hate the term “female presenting nipples” but we ain’t gonna stop saying it”
2. If a blog has a pixelated icon that means they got hit by the ban, you cannot view that blog outside the sidebar. You cannot even view their archive. Allegedly if you follow the advice in this post it’ll be fixed but only if it was an accidental flag (aka a real sfw blog)
3. The post Staff made including examples of what was ok to post. It got flagged.
4. Yes, the bots are still here. Yes they are still stealing posts and putting porn links on them. Yes there are still ads with stuff more sexual than they allow in posts. Yes innocent things are still getting flagged.
5. So yes, the site is still here and staff are still morons.
Could you do a how to with hands? I love the way yours come out.
Ok ok I’ve already told some people several times that
I am really really really bad at explaining stuff (and it gets harder in english) BUT I’m gonna try this time real quick because hands are important.
Alright now there’s one thing I do when I am sketching hands which is this lil’ geometric fella:
This guy represents the palm of your hand or a closed fist. Now you have to add more squares on top of it to make fingers, like this:
We got ourselves a tourkey, remember, the middle finger is always the big one and the ring finger is the same size as the index finger,and we all know pinky is the smol one.
now all you have to do is erase some parts and add more details
“but tals that’s a boring 2D hand I want something more dynamic.”
Now that’s where things get complicated because from this step foward you have to know a bit about perspective and bend the first geometric figure
Also I have no idea to explain how the hell do I draw those fingers because they come out natually now.
Friendly advice: don’t put money into Cumblr until they’ve shown design sketches or better: a working proof of concept.
The pitch is very light on details regarding implementation. The people running the campaign are anonymous. Their GoFundMe page has flexible funding, meaning they get all the money people donate, regardless of whether or not they make their goal. To me, that feels like a scam.
Their current site is barebones.(read: off-the-shelf site template) If there were people with project management, design or programming talent on board for this project, you could do a lot better than “it’s going to be like Tumblr for adult content” - either they have no plan at all, or will only start explaining it once they make the goal; which seems kind of sketchy, seeing as they set it to flexible funding.
And yet, 73 people have dumped $1,479 into that project.
Someone is putting the cart before the horse. As far as we can tell, there is no plan. There is an idea. There is a name. There is a domain name. There’s a logo that’s literally the name of the site in one ofthedefault Windows fonts. (Cambria) People should be super fucking skeptic about this.
But I get it. Now that everyone is panicking and scrambling to get away from Tumblr, people are willing to try anything because none of the alternatives fit for them. But that’s no reason to dump money into a crowdfunding project that is, as of right now, nothing more than a name.
Please ask whoever is running this Cumblr project to either share their plans, or give up this scam.
You can force Twitter to post the “raw” quality of your pics by adding one (1) pixel of transparency in the image.
Twitter uses some algorithm to compress images into .jpg, but it cannot do that if there’s transparency involved in the image, forcing it to be .png in its full quality. Literally one singular pixel ANYWHEREcounts for this, it can be on a corner if you don’t want it to be bothersome.
Figured some folks might be interested in this, considering Tumblr no longer supports the _raw trick.
For the sake of example instead of hearsay, I’ve posted a comparison in my Twitter here, but will also explain here. All images are 2000x2000px versions of my logo you can see on the top left of this post:
We all have seen the Tumblr communicate about forbidding nsfw blogs or those which have “adult” posts.
They think it won’t cause them any harm, but we are a really big part of the community. Let’s act and tell the staff that tumblr will slowly die after taking this decision. Follow these steps:
First of all, REBLOG THIS POST, so any NSFW blog can post and see it.
Give tumblr the worst mark at the App Store or Play Store
Write a negative comment about how they’re banning accounts and censoring the freedom of expression.
Purpose as a comment below a new site to move as a NSFW community.
If you do this before the 17 of December, we can change this decision. Let’s make the staff hear us. Make tumblr great again, a free place for free minds and free content!!
Personally, I enjoyed every single moment here at tumblr, and I appreciate everyone of my followers and blogs that I follow. If they delete my account… It was a pleasure to know you all. But we can still change this!!!
Regards!
I fully endorse this!
There should be a separate filter section anyway. I’m obviously a NSFW and an 18+ blog. A low rating will probably be heard the most.
Hope*
Good idea to keep a post reblog list. Might need it soon.
Lets keep this chain up
Ok…I dont think people are understanding the full picture here….it has nothing to do with porn…Tumblr doesnt give a shit about porn…Yahoo is scared that Apple will remove Tumblr from iOS and Apple used the old “CP” card to try to fuck over tumblr. Apple wants full control…and if Tumblr says No…they will be fucked over and removed by Apple from iOS.
