Chirp — Version 2.0.0

Preview // More Info & Install

hey y'all! since Twitter has been circling the drain for the past few weeks (months now?) and we've gotten an influx of new users migrating to Tumblr, I really wanted to give my Twitter theme a makeover (and a new name!).

Chirp comes with the following features:

  • Utilizes the Tumblr Official full-width controls and search bar
  • 7 post sizes, 7 sidebar widths, 8 navigation widths
  • All 3 Twitter color schemes (Default, Dim, and Lights Out) as well as two color themes (Accent Light and Accent Dark) and two Tumblr-inspired themes (Tumblr Blue and Tumblr Dark)
  • Choose from the Twitter font (Chirp), Tumblr font (Favorit), system default font, or 33 included Google Fonts in 4 different font sizes
  • "Who to follow" section that loads the icons, titles, and URLs of blogs from a list that you provide
  • "Trending tags" section that loads information about your blog tags (including number of posts per tag) from a list that you provide
  • Unlimited custom links (visit the help desk FAQ for tutorial)
  • Custom titles for Home, Ask, and Submit links
  • Optional verified account badge
  • Pagination or endless scroll

Chirp version 2.0.0 also includes:

  • A new redesign from the ground-up to match the latest iteration of Twitter's design (new fonts, colors, etc.)
  • Posts that are more similar to Tumblr posts than tweets (I tried to make them look like tweets but the accessibility and readability was garbage. Twitter's design was not made for long posts lol)
  • Better inclusion of NPF posts and formatting
  • Minimized code for faster loading times

you can install (or reinstall) this theme here, or wait for the theme to be approved in the theme garden (I only just submitted it today so it could take a bit!) and as always, thanks so much for using my themes. it means the world to me.

my themes are free to use, and always will be — but if you love my work, I'd be so happy if you bought me a coffee. thank you!

p.s. the icon used in this theme preview was made by @heyheymomo, whose work I admire SO dearly

Being a long time Tumblr user makes you privy to a lot of deep magic because you were there when it was written. Like the old trend of blogs having autoplay in them. You would check a blog and music would start blasting. Over your music. As if the Geneva Convention wasn’t real.
