Tumblr—Fandom, Art, Chaos

Welcome back to the wonderfully weird world of Tumblr: your new digital haven. Dive into a sea of vibrant digital art spanning all your beloved fandoms. Revel in the original masterpieces crafted by the same talented artists. Amidst the artistic splendor, you'll find the nostalgic charm of the old internet, brimming with fandoms of every kind and enough memes to entertain even the most meme-resistant mammal. Whether you choose to contribute your own creations or simply immerse yourself in the endless scroll, Tumblr is your canvas.

Every piece of life-altering art you uncover, every mesmerizing waterfall GIF, every poignant quote you share, and every carefully curated tag—that's all you. Use the reblog feature to showcase your passions and interests to the world. You're the explorer here; Tumblr is merely the map that you and your fellow explorers continuously reshape. Welcome home. Make it uniquely yours.

If you're an artist, you're entering a community eager to embrace your talents. Consider Tumblr your online studio, offering multiple avenues for expression: a portfolio to showcase your work, a social platform for engaging with your audience, or a digital sketchpad for brainstorming ideas, sharing sketches, and receiving feedback. Take on commissions, participate in themed art challenges like Goblin Week, Mermay, Julycanthropy, and Yeehawgust, delve into the nuances of your favorite tools, and collaborate with writers by creating art for their original characters. Even sell prints, coasters, mugs, and other merchandise through our Artist Alley, reaching fans who are actively seeking your work. Start a webcomic—remember, Heartstopper began its journey right here.

Now, imagine all of this accessible on the go. That's the essence of Tumblr.

Chances are, if you've seen something remarkable elsewhere, it likely originated here. That unforgettable digital painting, that insightful text post dissecting something you never knew you needed to understand—your Tumblr dashboard will weave them into a vibrant tapestry of your interests. Whether you post actively, quietly like posts, or reblog to your heart's content, you'll find a community ready to welcome you.

When you have something to express—whether it's your thoughts on a Virgo moon, a Barbie fanfic, or a photo of your beloved turtle Harold that you simply must share with the world—do it through a photo, video, or text post. Create an audio post to share your musings or your favorite song via Spotify. We even have a pre-set chat post for all your incorrect quotes.

The reblog function ignites conversations, sparks humor, and keeps them alive, sometimes spanning continents and years. With Tumblr, time and space are at your fingertips. Whatever you send out into our lively digital universe has the potential to travel far and wide (unless you opt for our post-level reblog controls, allowing for private blogs and posts).

Tumblr is the ultimate hub for fandoms. Everyone has that one cherished character from their favorite show. You'll find fanart to admire, reblog, and cherish—or even create and share within the community. Engage with your favorite fanfiction authors from AO3, view their original character art here on Tumblr, and discuss the intricate lore with them. From Pokémon to Marvel, K-pop to Supernatural, Minecraft to Star Wars, and Doctor Who—everything you love is here.

It's a vast universe waiting for you. If the idea of creating, reblogging, shipping, and curating feels overwhelming, visit tips.tumblr.com, where Cat Frazier from animatedtext.tumblr.com will guide you through Tumblr etiquette, from the effervescent to the eeby-deeby.

So, sign up, fall in love with some art, follow some tags, and carve out your niche on the dashboard. Reblog, like, and post to your heart's content, or simply drift through the dreamscape you've built for yourself—you are the master of this realm.
