With the upcoming changes to Tumblr I wanted to say thank you to everyone who posts and I’ve enjoyed your content immensely.

I also want to give a big thank you to those of you who follow me, it means a great deal to me.

I hope that one day I can find and follow all of you again wherever you might go and wish all the best to you until I can find you again.

In the meantime, don’t lose all you have done! Start your blog backups now and hopefully you’ll be able to import it into your new sites or at least keep what you’ve already done safe.

You can export all of the content you’ve created for your blog, and we’ll package it up into a convenient ZIP file for you to download.

To start the process, go to your account settings on the web:

Click "Settings" under the account menu at the top of the dashboard (the person silhouette).

Select the blog you’d like to export on the right side of the page.

Scroll down to the “Export” section and click the “Export [blog name]” button.

You’ll see a message indicating that your backup is processing.

When your blog’s content is finished collecting, the processing message will be replaced with a “Download backup” button. Click this button to download a ZIP file of your blog’s exported contents.

If you want to export the contents of more than one of your blogs, you'll need to initiate this process separately for each blog.

Your blog export may include:

A Posts folder, with an HTML file for each post (this includes reblogs, drafts, private posts, flagged posts, and any other hidden posts).

A Media folder, with the media from your posts, plus any media you’ve uploaded (like in messaging). These files will be in the format you uploaded them in (JPG, GIF, PNG, MP4, and so on).

A representation of your blog’s messaging conversations, in XML format.

A representation of your blog’s posts, also in XML format.
