Anonymous said:Hi, this is the anonymous person who wrote you about the ask box and you were kind enough to answer tonight... Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my question! I've been so used to my old tumblr that I didn't even realize that the asking function was disabled on newer accounts. >.< (I hate rekindling with my newbie-side.) Thank you so much again for the help! |
Yeah, I know what that’s like, lol… you’re welcome :)
Anonymous said:You'll have to forgive me but I have to ask about the askbox html coding as well... I've read everything you've posted about the problem on your faq page about how to fix the coding so the link will work, but for some reason it still doesn't work. I just downloaded the theme today and the coding is fine so I'm not really sure why it's having an issue. Is there anything else I can try to fix the problem? (I found the coding on line 402.) I'm so sorry about asking... >.< |
I’m sorry, I really don’t know what to tell you, Anon. The only problem with the askbox coding was that it linked to the wrong page, and since I fixed that the issue is gone. Are you sure you enabled the askbox in the first place?
(Settings » tick the box where it says ‘Allow people to ask questions’ or something along those lines. It’s not enabled by default, you have to do that manually)
Anonymous said:I'm having trouble with the newest theme's ask. Everytime I click the ask, it says it cannot be found when I use it, or when my friend is using it. I looked through the code to try and find a way to fix as it links to "askbox" rather than just "ask", but I can't seem to find where to fix it. |
I answered this exact question only five days ago. The answer is still on the first page of my blog and can be found here.
You can either follow the instructions there or simply copy and paste the code once more from pastebin.
Anonymous said:Hello, I'm using your #007 Bad news for brainwork theme and i absolutely love it, but for some reason it won't let me change my avatar/default picture when I go to customize it ( I'm not talking about the sidebar, sidebar works fine) but please help. |
That’s because your icon/avatar has nothing to do with the theme you’re using. You change it in the settings of your blog, not via customize page.
Anonymous said:Hi, thank you for the themes! I don't know if I already asked this, but theme 7 has a problem. When you go to your "tagged" page, if stays all messy. |
Er, unfortunately I have no idea what you’re talking about, Anon.
Theme 7 doesn’t come with a built in tag page, if you have one you added it manually and that is not part of my theme. Or do you mean when you click on a tag and all the posts in that tag show up? How exactly am I supposed to picture the effect that you describe as ‘messy’? That can literally mean all sorts of things and I don’t have second sight, I don’t magically know what your tagged page looks like.
thorsies said:Hi there! I'm currently using the #007 theme on a Sherlock blog I own, and I seem to be having trouble with the "Ask Me" box. Its linked as /askbox, and I'm not super great with working HTMLs, so can you explain how to get rid of that and replace it with the normal /ask or how to get tumblr to comply with the /askbox part, please? Thank you! |
Oh my God, how embarrassing… thank you for telling me >.< (there are three messages like this in my ask box, I’ll just answer this one and tag y’all):
Simply look through the code until you find
<a class="nav" href="/askbox">ask me</a>
and then change /askbox to /ask. I already edited the code on pastebin so from now on there shouldn’t be any more problems like this.
Anonymous said:hello, I'm using theme 2 and the pagination doesn't work. I mean, I unblocked it using / and it looks good, but when you click on next/previous page, it doesn't change. |
What do you mean with “I unblocked it using /”? I’m sorry, you need to be more specific than that :/ this is the code for the pagination bit in theme 2:
<div id="pagination">{block:Pagination}{block:PreviousPage}<a href="{PreviousPage}">«</a>{/block:PreviousPage}<b>{CurrentPage}</b>/{TotalPages}{block:NextPage}<a href="{NextPage}">»</a>{/block:NextPage}{/block:Pagination}</div>
and if you edited something and it doesn’t look like that in your code anymore, you can just copy this and paste it back in and it will work again. There are several blocks in there that are important and need to remain intact. Ugh, I’m so rubbish at explaining things. If you told me what it was that you wanted to change in the first place, maybe I could show you how to do that right :)
Anonymous said:Hiiiii. Thank you for the new theme! I have a slighty crush on you, your themes are SO amazing, I love them so much. Thank you so much. ♥_♥ |
adfasgfghhjlkfladfdajkls oh Anon ♥

Anonymous said:Hiiii. Do you have a personal blog? |
Hiiii! Indeed I have :3
(I thought the ‘themes by itsacrimescene’ kinda gave it away XD)
Anonymous said:hello, i am using one of your themes i think its 'its a crime theme'? not sure. but i love it very much except the sentences that i post are not in a straight line. how do i fix this? thank you |
Er, ‘It’s a crime theme’ is the name of my blog, lol. I think you mean this theme? The slightly rotated parts are the ‘special’ thing about it, so I’m not sure why you would want to change that, because then it’s just like any other simple theme… it’s only the quotes, the chat posts and the headlines of the text posts that are rotated by one degree. Well, and the sidebar.
If you still want to change it though, all you have to do is search for all the
-webkit-transform: rotate(1deg);
-moz-transform: rotate(1deg);
-o-transform: rotate(1deg);
-ms-transform: rotate(1deg);
transform: rotate(1deg);
in the code, and delete them.
Anonymous said:Your themes are SO awesome! The designs are amazing, and I love the fact that the posts, tags, things in general blend so well. You rock. (: |
Oh Anon, thank you so much! I’m glad you think so ♥
And you’re quite awesome yourself if I may say so :3
Anonymous said:Howdy there! I'm using theme number 1, and I was wanting to change the font of the side bar title and general posts, but uncertain of how. I also want to decrease the font size of the text in the side bar, if it's possible? |
Howdy yourself :D
For changing the font of general posts search for:
body{
and change the font-family to whichever font you want (make sure you keep the semicolon at the end though)
To change the font of the title, search for
.blogtitle {
and again, change font-family to the font you want.
And for lowering the size of the font in the sidebar, look for
#sidebar {
and change font-size to the size you want.
Anonymous said:i just wanted to drop in and say that while I don't use any of your themes, they are beautifully designed. you're one of the few people that seem to understand the imperative importance of good typography and colour contrast. i never feel like i'm straining my eyes to look at any of your themes |
adsfdgfl thank you so much, Anon :3
Anonymous said:This is probably horribly terrible of me to ask, but I saw that you changed your theme on your tumblr. Does that mean your previous theme you had there will be offered here, or will that remain personal? I absolutely adored it. I hope it's not rude of me to ask, I deeply apologize if it is! |
Lol, I’ve answered this question already a couple of times, but I’ll say it again: Yes, I will publish that theme. I just don’t know yet when I’ll find the time to look over the code and make it better customizeable, but I guess it’s just a matter of days now :)
Anonymous said:Hi I'm using theme two and I was woundering if it was possible to add music to it and if yes how?? Thanks :) |
Yes, you can add music to every blog on principle, because it doesn’t depend on the theme you’re using. As far as I know there are certain websites that offer codes for this sort of thing… I’ve never done it though, so I have no idea how. Google is your friend ;) try looking for ‘how to add music to my tumblr’ and I’m sure something will turn up :)
