How to Link Your Pictures to a URL on Tumblr

The popular website Tumblr allows users to start and maintain their own microblogs, or "Tumblogs," for free. The site is commonly used to post images, and includes a "reblog" feature, where users can duplicate another user's post and add their own commentary. When posting an image, you may want to link to an external site, such as the image's original source or something relevant to the topic at hand.

Instructions

1. Visit tumblr.com, and log in if you haven't already. Once logged in, you will be immediately forwarded to a page called the "Dashboard," where you can post and manage your settings.

2. Click the link that says "Photo" in the uppermost menu on the webpage.

3. Upload the photo you wish to post with the "Choose File" button, and select the appropriate file from its location on your computer. Add commentary in the "Caption" box if you wish.

4. Click "Select a click-through link" and enter the URL of the website you wish to link in the box that appears.

5. Press "Post" at the bottom of the screen, and your selected image will be posted as a link to the appropriate URL.
