I wonder if anyone here knows anything about customising tumblr.
When an image is given a source attribution (where it came from) this is normally shown as a text link. But some (larger companies) have theirs as an icon. Like GQ, see below:
This:
not this:
The GQ icon is hosted here, which leads me to believe that they have some kind of deal with Tumblr.
the part of the code that deals with source attribution is this:
<tr>
<td class="date"><a href="{Permalink}">{TimeAgo}</a></td>
{block:IndexPage}{block:NoteCount}<td class="notes"><a href="{Permalink}">{NoteCountWithLabel}</a></td>{/block:NoteCount}{/block:IndexPage}
{block:PermalinkPage}{block:ContentSource}<td class="notes"><a href="{SourceURL}">{block:SourceLogo}<img src="{BlackLogoURL}" width="{LogoWidth}" height="{LogoHeight}" alt="{SourceTitle}" />{/block:SourceLogo}{block:NoSourceLogo}Via {SourceLink}{/block:NoSourceLogo}</a></td>{/block:ContentSource}{/block:PermalinkPage}
</tr>
and is listed under Content Sources here:
http://www.tumblr.com/docs/en/cu…I've tried swapping out {BlackLogoURL} with the URL of my icon but it's not working.
Any help would be appreciated

I've wondered/looked into it as well.
Haven't come across a solution yet.

not that this helps...
sure it's not just pulling their profile icon? i.e, if that template reblogged anyone, it will show their icon, regardless of who it is?

Ok, they got back to me and it turns out they only provide those graphics for big content providers like GQ, the BBC etc
would have been nice though

so you have to pay to have that done or they just won't allow individuals to do it...?
- they get to choose who gets it. And you have to be huge to warrant thatBaskerviIle
