Tumblr: Feb. ~ June 2014

I always take myself too harshly on how my Tumblr develops over the last 4 months but here it is.


As of Feb. 2014:
  • All the contents from one of my former side blog (now deleted) moved to this blog
  • Since I set this up during vacation, I can only use an image my laptop stores as header
  • I didn't set up any pages yet
  • No queue yet
  • I was usually afraid to reblog because if I do so, I'll end up with an irregular blogging pattern
  • I didn't find many Harry Potter blogs yet




April ~ early June 2014:
  • I now have a profile picture in which I'm still using. It's the same as the header.
  • I've added an About section on the homepage and also on a separate page kin more detail 
  • I also list my Historical Favorites on one page
  • I start piling up reblogs and posts on a queue. At first, it is a messy mix between HP and History but became more clean by May. In the end, this worked out because my blog is the most active during my sleeping hours.
  • Towards end of May, I started adding Update Tabs (for experiment) in which I schedule that my theme will be changed in a month for good because I don't really like the theme anymore even though it is compatible with all browsers.
  • I started interacting with my followers. Thanks to a Potterhead :)
  • Between May ~ June, my follower count doubled. 
  • I also found many Potterheads and book blogs :)




Now:
  • Uses Custom Domain: ohmypotterheads.co.vu
  • Since my old header did not work out, a banner with many more historical figures is used instead but still has the original 4 wizards!
  • Many pages added including taglists thus navigation page is up. 
If you visit all these pages, you should figure out that I'm obsessing over Hermione & Old Fritz 
  • Firework cursor
  • Less cluttered update tabs
  • Best viewed with Google Chrome or wide screen (desktop computers)
  • Still tweaking a couple of pages but it's 80% done
All this hard work committed on makeover to demonstrate this is a Quality Fandom blog :)


I do believe there's always room for improvement and my Tumblr is no exception.

First post here

Hey :D

You can call me Ms. Potterhead just like on Tumblr.

You probably had seen me, yes, because this is my url:

hermionejean.co.vu

Don't judge. My main fandom is Harry Potter but I love reading in general and I'm pretty interested in Percy Jackson and Divergent (I want to read the books).
Other than these fandoms, if I finish reading more books, I'm potentially interested with the Hobbits ;)
You've got it, I have Historical Interests as well.
Yes, and anything about personality e.g. MBTI, because this fits pretty well with Historical Figures.

That's the whole purpose of the blogs.

Moi:

  • Ravenclaw (Potterhead)
  • Erudite
  • Daughter of Athena
  • Type 5w4 (Enneagram)
  • INTJ (MBTI)
  • Choleric (4 Temperaments)


So why did I made this anyway?

The most challenging aspect of making this cross-over is not only coherence but the audience need deep understanding in both the fandoms as well as the Historical Figures mentioned. So here, further explanations of where I sort each Historical Figures in fandoms will be posted here.

So...

If you want to know more about my attempts of Historical Figures cross overs, well here it is!
Just wait and see!

Fanfictions, Headcanons, AUs, Fanpic, etc.
As this will also backup my Tumblr posts of cross-overs, such posts will have my tumblr post url attached :)
