thank you for sharing the font ask, its been really helpful. Can i ask one last question about how to colour them and make them stand out? I'm struggling with that on ps🖤
absolutely! so i try to keep the text similar in the same color palette on a banner, and if i find that it's not standing out enough from the background, i use either an outer glow (for darker text) or a drop shadow (for lighter text), i've included a couple examples below!! along with being able to change the text color, you can also change the color of the outer glow and drop shadow too, they don't always have to be white or black, but that is typically what i use!
example 1
Tumblr media
for this banner, you can see that i used a darker grey/beige for the 'that is ours' text which is similar to the skin tone of tae (after my color editing). the 'the crown' text is white with a drop shadow to make it stand out from the text behind it, otherwise, it would look like this:
Tumblr media
example 2
Tumblr media
for this banner, i used colors that i found in the background for the text. there is an outer glow behind the farthest back 'wishes' and a drop shadow on the closest 'wishes', without either it would get lost in the busy background like so:
Tumblr media
example 3
Tumblr media
for this banner i used a drop shadow for the 'over' and 'hills' text, and then an outer glow for 'jeweled' and then also a drop shadow after adding the outer glow, this makes the white part of the glow stand out against the other white text, if i didn't do that it would look like this:
Tumblr media
so basically, use drop shadows and outer glows and you'll get your titles to stand out more and be more noticeable :)

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again
#yeehaw#1k#5k#10k#posts that got cursed. blasted. im making these tag updates after... 19 hours?#also i have been told it should say speech loss bc nonverbal specifically refers to the permanent state. did not know that!#unfortunately i fear it is so far past containment that even if i edited it now it would do very little. but noted for future reference#edit 2: nvm enough ppl have come to rb it from me directly that i changed the wording a bit. hopefully this makes sense#also. in case anyone is curious. though i doubt anyone who is commenting these things will check the original tags#1) my friend did not do this on purpose in any way. it was not intended to distract me or to hit on me. im a lesbian hes a gay man. cmon now#he felt very bad about it afterwards. i thought it was hilarious but it was very embarrassed and apologetic#2) “why didn't he use 🫵🏼?” didn't exist yet. “why didn't he use 🆗?” dunno! we'd been using a lot of hand emojis. 👌🏼 is an ok sign#like it makes sense. it was just a silly mixup. also No i did not invent 👉🏼👌🏼 as a gesture meaning sex. do you live under a rock#3) nonspeaking episodes are a recurring thing in my life and have been since i was born. this is not a quirky one-time thing#it is a pervasive issue that is very frustrating to both myself and the people i am trying to communicate with. in which trying to speak is#extremely distressing and causes very genuine anguish. this post is not me making light of it it's just a funny thing that happened once#it's no different than if i post about a funny thing that happened in conjunction w a physical disability. it's just me talking abt my life#i don't mind character tags tho. those can be entertaining. i don't know what any of you are talking about#Except the ppl who have said this is pego/ryu or wang/xian. those people i understand and respect#if you use it as a writing prompt that's fine but send it to me. i want to see it#aaaand i think that's it. everyday im tempted to turn off rbs on it. it hasn't even been a week

So earlier in art class today, someone drew a characters hands in their pockets and mentioned that hands are really like the ultimate end boss of art, and most of us wholeheartedly agreed. So then, our teacher went ahead and free handed like a handful of hands on the board, earning a woah from a couple of students. So the one from earlier mentioned how it barely took the teacher ten seconds to do what I can’t do in three hours. And you know what he responded?
“It didn’t take me ten seconds, it took me forty years.”
And you know, that stuck with me somehow. Because yeah. Drawing a hand didn’t take him fourth years. But learning and practicing to draw a hand in ten seconds did. And I think there’s something to learn there but it’s so warm and my brain is fried so I can’t formulate the actual morale of the lesson.

i have such a love for characters who descend into madness or villainy out of deep, deep empathy. characters who fundamentally cannot cope with the cruel realities they find themselves in and blow up about it in spectacular fashion. fallen angel type characters with tears of outrage in their eyes. characters who break before they bend, and break so badly they splatter blood all over their noble ideals. every variation on it gets me so good

hello! i've been looking through eerieedits tutorials about banners but i was wondering if you could give some advice on fonts and how to place them & make them look pleasing? 🎆🖤
of course! i'm more than happy to help!
i normally start with my background, photo + gif overlays, coloring files, etc. then move on to placing the member png - which i typically place on either side, i don't like to place them too close to the middle of the banner for this exact reason of font placement. (if you're not using a member png then it doesn't matter as much on where you decide to put the title of your fic.)
fonts are last bc i don't know how i'm going to set up the images yet, it's easier to me to do it this way. sometimes you'll still have to shift things around but the placement of everything is usually very close to how it originally was.
once you're ready for fonts, think of what types you want to use. i normally use a combination of a block font and a script font (i made a post a while ago about font pairings that may help you too).
if the title is long, i like to emphasize certain words or the 'main' word too that way it doesn't take up a whole lot of space on the banner. I also like the words to overlap, but that's a personal preference!
i also have certain 'rules' and best practices already in mind when it comes to creating banners that i learned when i got my degree in graphic design. some that come up most often are:
leave space along the edges of the banner, don't let the font touch the edge.
in some cases the title can 'bleed' onto the subject (member pngs) but it really depends on the placement and as long as the text doesn't go over anyone's face).
keep a good ratio for title vs subject - i like to set up my banners to be 700 pixels wide and 300 pixels high, and then i use a 70 / 30 ratio for text and subject - so 70% text and 30% subject (not including background).
if the background is super detailed, try not to place text over anything of importance.
and there are probably more but that's all that i can think of at the moment. of course, if you ever need anything explained or want advice for a banner you're working on - my dms are always open and i'm more than happy to help!
below are some examples from my portfolio that may be helpful to visualize what i mean too! feel free to use any of those titles + font placements as an example :) hope this helps and best of luck designing!!!

To illustrate this post by @mayahawkse I would like to visualize to you the difference:
A post in 2023:
Tumblr media
A post in 2014:
Tumblr media
A zoom out of the same post:
Tumblr media
This is what a community looks like.
See how in 2023 almost all of the reblogs come from the OP, from their few hours/days in the tag search. Meanwhile in 2014 the % of reblogs from OP is insignificant, because most of the reblogs come from the reblogs within the fandom, within the micro-communities formed there. You didn't need to rely on tags, or search, or being featured. Because the community took care of you, made sure to pass the work between themselves and onto their blog and exposed their followers to it. It kept works alive for years.
It's not JUST the reblog/like ratio that causing this issue, it's the type of interaction people have. They're content with scrolling and liking the search engine, instead of actually having a reblogging relationship with other blogs in their community.
Anyways, if you want to see more content you like, the only true way to make it happen is to reblog it. Likes do not forward content in no way but making OP feel nice. Reblogs on the other hand make content eternal. They make it relevant, they make it exist outside of a fickle tumblr search that hardly works on the best of days.
If you want more of something, reblog it.
