koi no yokan: blog theme by @taezs

blog theme inspired by various messaging platforms. responsive for smaller screens and mobile devices, and fairly npf-compatible (but not perfect). options: post size, post margin, hide tags on index, popup with more info, sidebar image, colours. 

credits: base code by @seyche, npf photosets by @glenthemes (and also heaps of assistance using it tysm), css photosets by @annasthms and @eggdesign. feather icons also used and a bunch of codepen scripts credited in the code. full list of creds on @creatre/creds

I imagine by now everyone has noticed that gifs look uglier and the .gif format has been changed to .gifv, except on the blog pages where the original .gif format remains. This was supposedly done so that tumblr can free up some space on their servers.

I was checking if there’s a workaround and apparently user Eramdam has made a chrome and firefox extension to replace gifv with gif on dashboard/explore pages. I checked it on chrome and it works!! (the firefox version isn’t live yet) You can check out more info and get the links to the extensions here.

Note: it does not work on /tagged /likes /blog pages but I imagine it can and might be done in the future, but either way this is better than nothing.

Reputting the links here now that everything is live

You can get it for Firefox here => https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/gifsontumblr/

You can get it for Chrome here => https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ccjbcoflmpghkhenojnpepcdbimhiglf/

The source code of the extension is here https://github.com/eramdam/GifsOnTumblr

A few things of note:

- Important disclaimer: the extension works now because Tumblr still hosts the original GIFs every time, presumably for browser compatibility purposes. The day they stop doing so, the extension will stop working unfortunately and there won’t be any way back (converting mp4/webm back to GIF is a very messy situation and will almost always result in glitches and such :/ )

- GIFs heavy pages might slow down your computer, that was always the case because GIFs is very resource hungry (hence why Tumblr/Imgur/Twitter convert them in mp4) but I want to put it out there as a warning just to make that clear.

- the extension only goes through all the links/images present on the dashboard/explore pages and replaces the `.gifv` in the URLs to `.gif`. That’s it.

- as such, there isn’t any visual indication that the extension worked (I might add one if it gets requested) so the only way to check is to do something like “Open image in a new tab” on a gif in your dashboard

it does not work on /tagged /likes /blog pages but I imagine it can and might be done in the future, but either way this is better than nothing.

I didn’t notice that! I’m a very light Tumblr-user, my only use of it is to grab GIFs from various sources (hence why the gifv change pissed me off), but I’ll try to look into this!
