tumblr questions

[certainthings]

When you post a picture and you'd like to add a caption, how do you make the font size smaller? I've seen it done but alas, I haven't figured out how to do it.

Is there an easy way to find out who originally posted something?

Doesn't the reblog usually show the original poster? Is that only sometimes?

Alas, I do not know your font answer.

In the caption area you can see the HMTL button (it's the last one on the right), click on it and a pop up window will open. Write your test in this window between <small>TEXT HERE</small> and then click on Update :)

In most of the tumblr themes you can see (via username) that is the person you reblogged from and (originally or source username) that is the original source. Sometimes it shows at the main pager or at the "permalink" page this is a permalink page


Sorry about so many edits, I couldn't figure how to show you the right code *blush*

if you don't want to reblog the graphic you can just open the reblog option in a separate tab and then click "post as" at the top and choose quote. it automatically gives you the source address. if not, it will give you the person you're reblogging it from.

long-winded but the only way i know of doing it...

tumblr just confuses me. so i generally just stalk and sometimes i reblog and that's about it.

the whole "fuckyeahflavoroftheweek" communitything over there is pretty amusing.
