Basically on Wattpad nowadays, a lot of people have a 'tumblr' themed profile and all these accounts look really cool. I kind of have a tumblr looking account (kinda) so I sorta know how to make your account look tumblr.

There are sub-genres of 'tumblr' accounts on Wattpad which I've made names for because I have no life.

There's the 'Candy Tumblr' account which mainly focuses around pink and pastel colours.

The 'Grime Tumblr' account has things like grills, guns and angry looking people on them.

The 'Badass Bitch' account usually has a profile picture of a girl holding money/ a gun/ a boy etc.

The 'Basic Girl' account has the stereotypical, overused pictures as their background and profile picture.

The 'Indie Tumblr' account has your kind of mellow colours on it and pictures of people in sweaters and glasses.

The 'Rich Bitch' account has the pictures of money or fancy cars etc.

1. Look for pictures of girls/guys/ drawings etc on tumblr (or just put 'girl tumblr' into Google) for your profile picture. Make it simple yet effective.
2. For your background, I think pictures of places rather than people look most effective.
3. For your bio either make it sarcastic, short and sassy or funny, slightly self-deprecating and light hearted.
4. For your username, there are two routes you can go. Use a pun/ short phrase as your username. Or have a random phrase that sounds cool; some words which I always think look cool in usernames are: moonlight, cloud, sunshine etc. Don't overuse things like numbers or hyphens because they ruin the effect.
5. Book covers. Tumblr themed accounts on Wattpad tend to have matching covers for all their books but if you're not about that life, just make sure that all your book covers are 'tumblr based' ie using pictures that look like they've walked straight off tumblr.

BONUS TIP: make your location funny and witty.
