Silver Tongue

lastvalyrian:

plain-dealing-villain:

1) Tumblr declared fanmail dead and over.

2) The page still exists, though, there’s just no links to it. Go to www.tumblr.com/send and it’s still there.

3) It pops up “Please use the new Messaging to talk to a Tumblr” when you put words in the word part. And the submit button is grayed out.

4) The submit button is still a submit button, though. Right-click the cancel button, click “inspect”, and you’ll see this:

<div class="submit_controls">
  <button class="send" type="submit" disabled="disabled">Send</button>
  <button class="cancel" type="button">Cancel</button>
</div>

Click that ‘disabled=“disabled”’ bit and delete it and you can still send fanmail.

Clearly Tumblr has not studied the Codeless Code, or they would understand the lesson of the Concubine’s Fog.

this website is a lesson in bad web design
