I got the dashboard thingie - I figured it was a friends-page type view and managed to find the button to switch off being bombarded with "popular" stuff, ugh.
I can't change the settings at the moment because I need the email they sent to my yahoo so it's a big blank untitled page. I don't get why NOTHING is restricted about your new tumblr except for changing how it looks by the set-up email. THAT DOES NOT MAKE SENSE. I can post and follow and comment without the email but not change the look... wha??
Ugh, I figured out pretty quickly that the search function is completely crap. I searched for myself (I know, don't do it!) and a few recs came up, but then I searched for different titles of my stories (weird way of trying to find people but I couldn't think of anything else) and other stuff came up on each one of those that had my name in it too but didn't come up in the name search.
I just thought it would be kind of useful to rec and post fic bits and look at shiny things - but I've decided this is a trial run only - if it makes my soul cry I'm deleting it... hee!
