I find I love using it to review what pictures I&#8217;ve posted over the months and I wish I could collect more data from it, like the number of items you gave a particular tag. Part of my reason for starting <a href=\"http:\/\/natushi12.tumblr.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">my tumblr blog<\/a> was to use it as a place to store inspirational\/beautiful images instead of clogging up my pictures folder (which I need to go through and post some things from!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the last couple of months though, I&#8217;ve found myself more interested analysing what I&#8217;ve been posting and finding particular themes, colours and styles that I&#8217;ve been tagging. I&#8217;ve definitely been noticing that my posts have certain trends in them, for example I find that for some months I&#8217;m more likely to post pictures with particular colours one month than I am the next. So I thought I&#8217;d start analysing month by month, seeing what are the main traits of my month&#8217;s posts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>So let&#8217;s start with last month!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>It was a pretty colourful month, though I think most used are red, blue and black, with orange\/yellow and purple following close behind.<\/li><li>Photographs, illustrations and design are the 3 main types of files<\/li><li>Nearly all the images with people in them are women! This doesn&#8217;t surprise me though. When I draw, I pretty always draw females, since that&#8217;s what I mainly practiced at. Maybe men are just boring to look at \ud83d\ude1b What I&#8217;ve noticed with these women though is a lot are<\/li><li>Following on from my last point, there are a lot of images of women from the past &#8211; marilyn monroe, Vivien Leigh, and even old images of Madonna. When it comes to pictures of<\/li><li>Pictures of fashion usually include stockings, lace, and simple pieces with beautiful detailing.<\/li><li>I always appreciate details in design, art and illustration because I know how much time goes into getting them right.<\/li><li>I&#8217;m not a huge typography buff, but lately I&#8217;ve been trying to expose myself to it more and learn what I like, hence there being a few typography pieces in there.<\/li><li>Fair amount of vector images and illustrations, both simple and detailed.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s what I&#8217;ve picked out for this month. Any other trends you can see?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is also another reason why I want to track my post themes. Last year I <a href=\"http:\/\/spyrestudios.com\/unlock-the-designs-youre-truly-meant-to-create\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">read an article<\/a> talking about finding your own unique style and full potential as a designer. It suggested looking at all of your inspirations and combining them all into your work. I thought this was a pretty neat idea and wanted to give it a go. Not this month, but maybe in the next month or so, I might try this idea out, making stuff that includes all the elements from the month before from what I analyse in my pics. We&#8217;ll see how it goes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What do you use your tumblr blog for? Image collecting?
