#gradient text help

hiii i was wondering how you get ur post texts to be pastel pink :) instead of this hot pink
Hiii 💕💕 okay so it actually has to do with coding 😭 I’ll try my best to explain. So basically, I go to this website ( https://jsfiddle.net ), this is where you can make any color text you want.
— STEPS BELOW —
Step One: So, once you’re there you’ll see this screen, I’m on mobile so it might look a lil different.
Tumblr media
Step Two: Once there, you’ll go to the right side where the text boxes are.
Tumblr media
Step Three: In the top box, you’ll want to type in whatever text you want to make a different color.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Step Four: Next, where the red and green color dots are, click on the red dot. This is going to be where the color starts. You can make the text whatever color you want.
note: you can make your text gradient, as in two different colors. I make my text just one color ( that pale pink color ), which means both the red and green dot must be the same color. For gradient, the red and green need to be whatever two colors you want to make gradient. For example, if you wanted to do yellow and purple gradient text, change the red to the color yellow and the green to the color purple.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
*FFE5FA is the color of my pink text.
Step Five: After you’ve changed the color, hit the run button in between the text boxes.
Tumblr media
Step Six: Once you’ve hit run, the text box below will generate the coding for your colored text.
Tumblr media
Step Seven: Once it’s there, you’ll want to click on it and hit the ‘select all’ button.
note: I am using this on an iPhone, so it may very on a Samsung or computer. Just make sure you copy the whole thing of code
Tumblr media
Step Eight: Once you’ve hit select all, hit the copy button
Tumblr media
Step Nine: So now the text should be copied to clipboard and available to past where ever you want. After that, and this is an important detail or else it won’t work, you have to go to Tumblr Online, not the app.
Step Ten: Once you’re on tumblr, go to make a new post.
Tumblr media
Step Eleven: Once you make the next post, you’ll want to go to the top right corner and click on the settings icon
Tumblr media
Step Twelve: You should see a screen like the one below. At the bottom of that pop up where it says TEXT EDITOR, the icon next to it should say Rich Text.
Tumblr media
Step Thirteen: Click on the Rich Text box, and options should pop up saying, Rich Text, HTML, Markdown
Tumblr media
Step Fourteen: Click the HTML option
Tumblr media
Step Fifteen: You should see this screen next
Tumblr media
Step Sixteen: You’ll want to paste the HTML code you just copied next to or after the code already there like this
Tumblr media
Step Seventeen: Okay then you’ll want to make sure it’s saved as a draft
Tumblr media
note: if you go to your drafts first and then create a new post, then it should automatically have the save as draft option at the bottom. It’s quicker than doing it like normal and having to select save as draft.
Step Eighteen: It should look like this now
Tumblr media
Step Nineteen: Congratulations! You’ve done the hard part. Now go back to mobile or the app because it’s easier for these next steps in my opinion.
Step Twenty: In the app, go to that saved draft and make the text bold if you so choose, it makes it stand out more that way
Tumblr media
Extras: you only need to make one colored text when you make a post, which means you don’t need to go through that whole process for each line/word you want to make colored.
— just type whatever words you want colored next to the already colored text, then move it down a space.
— however, once you delete that line of colored text it cannot be recovered, you’d have to go through this process again.
ANYWAY, I hope this helped. I tried to make it as step-by-step as possible. 😁😁💕💕

gradient text tutorial
This tutorial is for @ladynephthyss​​ but y’all can have it too xD
We’ll be adding text so the final gif looks like this:
Tumblr media
This tutorial assumes basic knowledge of gif-making, Photoshop, and coloring. I’ve only described the text tutorial in this.
Tutorial under the cut:
Couple things to note beforehand:
There is a lot of trial and error involved when doing any sort of text, and this is no exception! You might have to play around with the colors and the settings before you find something that looks good and readable!
This tutorial is inspired by the difference text effect in these tutorials: one and two by @anya-chalotra​ (highly recommend checking those out!), just done a different way.
This text effect works better on big gifs (540px width) that have quite a bit of movement below the text so you get that effect.
Find fonts that have bold shapes or some width to them, so you can see the movement.
This is my starting gif, after sharpening and coloring.
Tumblr media
First, I position my text where I want it. (this can be moved around later, I just like to get an idea). Remember what I said about fonts? Try to use ones that are thick for this effect so you can see the gradient/movement underneath the letters. I’m using Intro. 
It doesn’t matter what color the text is at this stage, I just do white text so I can see it:
Tumblr media
Then, add a gradient map in the color you want your text to be. For this one, I chose black and purple. The more contrast there is in your colors, the better it looks. You’ll be able to change this later though, if you don’t like the way it looks. 
This is how it looks with the gradient map:
Tumblr media
Now, we’re going to go over into our layers panel, and where we have the white box (the layer box), we’re going to select and delete that...
Tumblr media
...so it looks like this:
Tumblr media
Then, while pressing Ctrl, we’re going to hover our mouse over the T in our text layer. Your cursor should show a white box with a dotted border. Press the T in the text with the specialized cursor, and you should get a dotted line all around the letters, like so: 
Tumblr media
(I’m not able to get a screenshot of the cursor for some reason but I hope the instruction made it clear!)
Then, make sure you have your gradient map layer selected, and press the layer mask button (shown by a white arrow in the below image - it looks like a white rectangle with a black circle in the middle.)
Tumblr media
This is what it should look like:
Tumblr media
Right now, it’ll look like some solid color (which depends on your gradient). This is because we still have the text layer visible. Once we press the eye icon next to the actual text layer to hide it, you can see that this is what it looks like:
Tumblr media
(You can also delete the text layer, but I don’t, just because if I decide to put these two words on two lines, or change their spacing or whatever, I don’t want to have to make a new layer. I can just edit that one before re-masking.)
As you play your gif, you’ll see that this is what the whole movement looks like:
Tumblr media
You can see that the movement of him lifting the glass to drink his tea shows through the text, too. Almost like a weird color X-ray type thing, where the lighter color shows on darker shades of the gif, and the darker color shows on the lighter part of the gif.
Note: sometimes, depending on the way your gradient is made, you might get text that looks like the picture below. Just hit the reverse button (shown with a white arrow), and you should get the text looking like it does above.
Tumblr media
This is the basic way to do it. Now, we can easily edit this, if we feel like there’s too much purple and not enough black. To do that, we go into the gradient, and change the slider positions of the colors. This is purely an aesthetic preference, but I’ll show you how to do it below:
Tumblr media
For example, I moved those sliders so there’s more black and less purple, and the gradient feels more like two colors only, instead of all the various hues of dark purple/gray-purple. 
This is what the gif looks like:
Tumblr media
In the gif before this one, the black was more of a muted gray. In the one directly above, you can see that it looks much more striking. So play around with that until you find something you like. 
It still doesn’t look very visible to me, so I’m going to add a drop shadow underneath (again, this is a preference thing). You’d do it just like you would with a regular text layer. Right click the Gradient Map layer and select Blending Options. Add a drop shadow.
This is what mine looks like:
Tumblr media
And that’s it! You can keep playing around with the whole thing until you’re happy with it. You can even keep changing the color, and the great thing about that is you’ll be able to preview it as you change it to see what works with your scene. For example, I tried white and black text here:
Tumblr media
And that’s it! Feel free to drop me an ask if anything’s confusing! Happy giffing!

Heyy im kinda new to tumblr can u tell me how do you edit your text to be in colours and i dont mean this i mean like two different colours
(Sorry for the bad explanation idk how to explain it 😭😭🫶🏾)
Heyyy Babes🩷!
Ofc I can tell you, gradient text is simple and easy once you learn it! (I hope I explained this good enough for you😭)
Answer below the cut!
I use Text Color Fader
First you pick your hex codes you want (you can find hex codes on this blog)
The hex codes I use are #a0195b → #cc3274 → #ff6999
Then you go to Tumblr website (you can only enter gradient text on tumblr website) and you create a post (you can add it on old post too but creating a new post is easier)
This video below shows you how the process works!
Once you create the post it should look like this!
Tumblr media
I hope this video helps! If you have anymore questions (or if you need a better explanation) don’t be afraid to send me another ask or dm me!

sorry for asking, but i really liked how you put your text in the pinned post in pastel colors and idk how you did it, do you mind explaining it please? i've been trying myself changing the html thing and i always get so lost
Hello hello 😻✨✨🩷🩷 okay so, I explain in this post how to change your text colors, but I recommend going to this link instead for the html gradient text link I originally put as it’s easier to work with than the one I posted in the og link.
If you do choose to go to the other link for the html, the same steps still apply as in the og link in the sense of applying it to your post, as the source for gradient html doesn’t matter. I hope you understand what I meant and good luck!!! Have fun with it as well, and don’t be sorry for asking that’s why I have an inbox!!! 😙✨✨

Hey! I just have a quick question, how do you do for the font color to be gradient or another color that isn’t blue, pink, purple, orange or green?
i use edit fiddle. (you might only be able to do this on desktop. i've never tried it on mobile before.) also, you can only choose 2 colors doing it this way. i don't know of a way to use 3+ colors, but i'm sure others might!
-> just enter the text you want in the first blank field:
Tumblr media
-> click on the colors and change them to whatever you want (it kept closing the color selection boxes when i tried to get screenshots *pouts* but you'll see what i mean when you do it):
Tumblr media
-> click 'run' then select and copy all in the field below where you entered your text:
Tumblr media
-> open/start a tumblr text draft -> click on the little gear icon in the top right and select HTML in the text editor field:
Tumblr media
-> paste the html code. it'll look like this:
Tumblr media
-> then click 'preview' and VOILA!
Tumblr media
( from there you can make it bold, italic, bigger, etc. if you try it and run into any problems or have any questions, lmk and i'll try to help!! ^.^ )
here's the finished product:

hihi my smart cookie 🤭🍪 pls educate me on how to do gradient text
Tumblr media
OFC ML <33
So you there are 2 methods to do it, I use the Patorjk’s Text Color Fader but there is another method (which idk how to use T^T)
Step-1 : Let's say you wanna type "Sunghoon" in gradient so write it in message. You can change the colours/colour gradient and fade type according to your preferences! Then Click on generate text.
Tumblr media
Step-2 : Once the text is generated, click on select all and copy the html code!
Tumblr media
Step - 3 : Now paste it into this site. Click on replace text and then copy to clipboard! [note: just put a random symbol in those boxes like I've done so]
Tumblr media
Step - 4 : Go to settings and change the text editor to HTML [note: this cannot be done on tablets/phones]
Tumblr media
Step - 5 : paste the code and then shift back to Rich Text
Tumblr media
Step - 6 : There you go :D
