fault creep and historical hair

[tsuki_no_bara]

those of you who tumbl, is there way to show all your tags on one page?

there's a town in california being slowly twisted out of whack by fault creep, which seems to be kind of like the very, very slow shifting of the tectonic plates under the earth. (the instruments used to measure fault creep are called creepmeters. hee.) it would be

For tumblr tags, do you mean like this? If that's what you're looking for, I'll dig up the instructions tomorrow. It's super easy!

Those pictures of the fault creep are kind of eerie, wow.

Sorry about the delay; I haven't been at a computer all weekend! So, in order to get that kind of tag cloud, this website will generate a code for you. You can fiddle around with that a bunch so that you don't (for example) have to see tags you've only used once, or a queue tag if you have that. There is a max number of tags it will display (IDK what that is, though), so I set mine to show tags with a minimum usage of 2. If you have questions, I've fiddled around with this a bunch, so I can hopefully help you there.

Once you get your code, you can either paste it into the sidebar field on your layout (varies depending on layout), or do what I did and create a new page for it. Here are tumblr's instructions on how to create pages. If you do a new page, then you can link that page in your sidebar or wherever, and you don't have a crazy long list of tags on every page of your tumblr (makes loading things quicker). Let me know if you have any questions!

*facepalm* :D

it's only sort of working. >.< i generated the code for the tag cloud and added a page for it, but the page shows the code and not the tags. so it looks like this. what did i do wrong?

(i can't resist a good pun. :D )

You have to make sure that you're pasting it into the HTML view, rather than the default rich text. I'd also add some <*p> tags around it (without the *s), just in case tumblr is being picky. Tumblr is very picky about HTML sometimes. :\

(And that was an excellent one! :D)
