→Common Tumblr Terms: added discourse, a phrase that seems to be used a lot these days.
* '''reblog''' - a standard site function that lets you repost a post made by someone else, retaining the link back to the original post; many tumblrs consist primarily of reblogged content. Reblogged images display on all the users' blogs, but the image itself is not reuploaded and has the same URL.

* '''repost''' - to post someone else's art or gifsets, especially when the original creator has already posted them to Tumblr. A lot of fanart is downloaded from other sites and posted by someone other than the artist to Tumblr, but even works that are available on Tumblr can receive the same treatment. For example, a Tumblr gifset can be reposted by downloading the individual gifs and then reassembling them in a new post instead of reblogging the existing post; many consider this [[plagiarism]].<ref>See [http://codenamecesare.tumblr.com/post/47218586834/the-above-is-a-collection-of-reaction-gifs-i this post by codenamecesare] for a discussion of the issues.</ref> Also, Tumblr images can be incorporated into new text posts by copying the URL, which does not show who originally uploaded it (e.g. http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_me5zjnBUNB1rzhnr4.gif)
