Changing Icons

Alright, i notice a lot of you have the Generic Tumblr Icons and- in case you dont know- Tumblr has a bad case of Bots so every once in awhile, creators and other blog owners will do a purge.

What do we do in the purge?

We block any and all Bots

It used to be easy but now- not so much

Let me show you a common Bot

Nothing on their page, with a standard icon.

Now, a year or two ago, i know this is a bot and i can block em, done deal!

But now-

I see Ikarus, i think they are a bot

Its the same right down to their posts. No reblogs, but it differs on the likes and follows

But this? This is not good.

Not only are you not supporting your content creators by reblogging their items, but it makes it so hard for those creators not to block you.

And shabang- you end up with a creator blocking you with no idea why.

If you have a standard icon, please reblog from your favorite creators- we're on tumblr, no one cares about the weird shit you like or reblog, and if they do- the block button is there :)

But the first thing to do to get off the block list, is to change your icon. And i'll show you how on Mobile.

Take note, i am an android user, but the process is similar for Apple

Head to your blog, and at the top right corner, you will see a little pallette. This is the universal edit me for your blogs where you can change color and font

Now you can see what i can edit and what's available, my icon and banner, my background and accent, but for now, lets focus on that icon!

This box will appear, you can choose to not show your avatar/Icon, and the shape of a Square or Circle, that's up to you, but for now Choose a photo and use any of which you like! You can zoom in on a photo to get a single character or not, that's up to you.

Tumblr offers many icon sets if you'd like, my suggestion is to not use an IRL photo.

1. Cause its the internet

And 2. You'll still maybe be banned cause a lot of Porn Bots and 'Sugar Daddy Bots' use IRL photos. Like below

Just keep it in mind, and have a fun time changing your icon to suit you!

they should legalize polyamory. everywhere. and im not kidding at all. if someone wants to marry multiple people they should be allowed to. for any reason.

transfutch

before anybody tries to say some bullshit about this, extending the definition of marriage to include multiple people would give members of religions forced into abusive polygamy the same rights any divorcing spouse would have without putting them at risk for being charged with bigamy. this would make it easier for people to leave abusive plural marriages.
