Help Series

Behold! An introductory post to a series of posts I’ll be making to help people with their tumblr RP experience. I’ll be covering two main subjects with sub-headings: Tumblr RP Writing in general and RP Etiquette. TUMBLR RP WRITING 1. Establishing Character 2. Starters: Dos and Don’ts 3. Conflict 4. Resolution 5. Character Development

RP ETIQUETTE 1. Headcanons 2. Askbox Memes 3. Establishing Verses 4. Exclusives??? 5. Call Out Posts

Keep in mind that these are all heavily framed by my opinion and should not be considered gospel. I’ve been around the block with RPing, but I am by no means an authority.

#BA! talks

I’ll be making a 5 to 6 part series soon about improving your writing as a tumblr RP blog. I’ll be tagging it accordingly. Afterwards, feel free to ask questions if I didn’t cover something, and I’ll tag it all together so it’s easily tracked here.

Theme #6: In a Galaxy Far Far Away by bookerattano Temporary Live Preview | Static Preview | Pastebin

This is based off a theme I use for my own RP blogs. 250px wide blogs are a thing, but if you know your HTML you can finagle this to a wider width.

Container theme; 250 px

Cover Background

5 links

I made this one VERY basic, as I figured it’d be a good starting point for people to use. You can remove the credit link if you want, but please don’t take the credit out of the coding, thank you!

I’ll finish updating all of my tags tomorrow, but for now I feel like I’ve made a decent dent in getting this blog up to my standards.

For the base theme, ik it says credit is not needed but does that mean we can credit ourselves? Or should it go back to you? Or do you not care what we do?

Basically, that means I don’t need a little watermark somewhere in the code that says I made it.

By the same token, people saying they wrote the code aren’t being truthful– I wrote it. So taking credit for something they didn’t do isn’t really cool with me, but I can’t stop you.

Personality Quiz Masterlist

There are plenty of gif sets and photosets out there about personality types; here is a short list of the most popular personality quizzes used in those sets.

The Myers-Briggs Personality Test

The Seven Roles Test

The Open Four Temperaments Test

The RHETI Sampler

The Moral Alignment Test

Astrological Signs

The Celtic Tree Zodiac

These kinds of quizzes can help with fleshing out a character, or adding addtional headcanons to an already-developed character, too.

Can we edit theme no. 5 as much as we'd like and credit you on a credit's tab?

I’m perfectly fine with that, sure!

Custom Pop-Up Boxes

You will notice on my numerous RP blogs that I use custom pop-up boxes. Sometimes they have different images on each box accordingly; I will give a brief tutorial of how I make my boxes.I first learned how to add pop-up boxes from this tutorial. But I will be linking my own coding.

Copy and Pasting

STEP ONE: Open your customize theme page and select the Edit HTML panel. STEP TWO: Paste this code underneath <head>. STEP THREE: Paste this code before </style>. STEP FOUR: Paste this code between </body> and </html>. STEP FIVE: Paste this code where you want the link to show up.

Customizing Your Boxes

Step four involves the most customization and tweaking on your part. Note that the link you paste wherever in step five determines the width of your box, using the “#?w=500″ value. Now, onto customizing your box!

RED: This is where titles and such go. The box title has to match the box title in the link from step five. YELLOW: This <div> is for the textbox that will appear on your pop-up box. At this setting, it slightly to the right; this is something you basically have to eyeball according to your background image of choice; “margin-left:” and “margin-top:” are the values you use to determine in pixels how far from the left and top edges of the pop-up your textbox will be. BLUE: You have custom color options because your pop-up box background image may not be the same color as your page background.

Conclusion

If your pop-up boxes don’t show up when clicked on and it’s just a black shadow, either your popup’s rel in the link ( a href="#?w=500" rel="BOX TITLE HERE" stuff ) isn’t the same as your div id for the box ( <div id="BOX TITLE HERE" class="popup_block" stuff ).

AN example of a pop-up box is available here on bookerattano. Check it out!

for theme 5, the popup ask box isnt working for me. what am i doing wrong?

That really depends on what the problem is. If you could get back to me off-anon so I can answer this privately, I’d be happy to help you.

can i remove the credit on theme no. 5?

I would really prefer if you didn’t– I think it’s my best theme to date. As a compromise, I’m alright with crediting me on a page or update tab.

The base code for the container box. Is that free for anyone to modify or would you prefer the credit is kept? Also the updates tabs you use in your other themes do they have a source?

On the posts for those themes, the updates tab is credited to the appropriate creator and I don’t remove their credit from their code if they have any. The base code is free to modify however you want and credit is not needed.

How do you add a container to themes? It's the one thing I haven't been able to find in tutorials. You don't have to answer if you don't want to!

Oh, goodness, that really depends on the theme. See, each one is different and theme-makers title their divs different things! To make things easier for people, I’ve made a base theme that you can mess with to your heart’s desire. Generally a theme that’s a container theme requires there be an overflow value for the posts and a div dedicated to containing them, which you can see on the theme I’ve linked!

It’s not much of an answer, I know, but I hope it helps!
