How to Add Color to Your Tumblr Text using HTML
Are you ready to sprinkle some color magic over your Tumblr text? Whether you’re a DIY enthusiast or just someone who wants to jazz up their blog’s visuals, you’ve come to the right place. Putting color in Tumblr text HTML isn’t rocket science, but it does come with its own quirks. So, let’s dive right in!
First things first, are you editing your Tumblr description through the app, or are you tackling it via a desktop browser? This matters because if you find your Tumblr is already customized somewhere in the layout, you’ll need to use CSS instead of ordinary HTML. Crazy, right? If you head into your theme’s HTML, look for the associated class tag that controls the text you want to color, and go from there.
If you’re entering text directly, I’ve discovered that style or paragraph tags work wonders. Here’s how you can do it:
- With the font tag: <font style=”color: #FF5733; font-size: 12px”>your colorful text</font>
- With paragraphs: <p style=”color: #FF5733; font-size: 12px”>your colorful paragraph</p>
- Or using the span tag: <span style=”color: #FF5733; font-size: 12px”>your colorful span text</span>
Feeling adventurous? If those methods don’t seem to do the trick, you might need to edit your Tumblr’s {Description} tag directly in your layout. Oh, how the rules have changed over the years! Welcome to the wild west of coding, my friend.
Also, don’t forget to brave the head of your HTML document. Insert your <style> </style> tags, and create lovely little classes or IDs to change the colors. Here’s a quick template:
<style> .example p { color: #FF5733; padding-top: 5px; } </style>
If you wish to edit directly in your HTML code where you see the <p> tag, just like this:
<p style=”color: #FF5733; padding-top: 5px;”>This text is colorful!</p>
Just remember, every little tweak you make should be saved to see it come alive on your Tumblr page. Is it making sense now, or did I just make your color dreams come crashing down?
