(Question) How to create a blog list?

[Someonemustnothavethis]

There's a button to load a blog list but I don't see anyway to make a blog list, or save the blogs already loaded.
I'm ashamed to say how many blogs I follow and would like to make several different lists in order to load and update the blogs at different times/dates.
I'm just a user and NOT a programmer (can ya tell?) but I had little problem getting it to work without any instructions. It's been rock solid stable and saves me shedloads of time. I use Tumbex exclusively to access the Tumblr blogs.
Thanks.
Bob

Hi,

there are two possible ways for exporting a list of your loaded blogs:

1. Open settings -> general -> press "export blogs". You can click the browse button to navigate to a different location. The default is a blogs.txt file next to the executable.
2. Select all blogs (ctrl-a)
   Copy (ctrl-c)
   Open a text editor of your choice (e.g. notepad++)
   paste (ctrl-v)

Both ways will create a text file containing a list of the blog/likedby/etc urls.

Thanks for the info, this will making my 'Tumblring' much easier.
Is there a way I can donate say, 20 bucks to the project? I can't program but I like to support stuff that works.

Hi Johannes, Thanks again for the quick reply. As a non-programmer and non-geek, I thought I'd give you some comments on your program and this whole Github thing-a-ma-jig. I know enough to be able to find my way through a github site and download programs but it can be intimidating for the non-techie person. There is never a nice big "Download here" button and documentation, if it exists at all, is geared towards other programmers and full of terms few people understand. As an example, I had to look up 'enqueue'....and I have a science degree! I'd love to see this program (among others) go more mainstream so that it's accessible to many more people. Have your Github site for the people working on it, but also create a forum for the general user to discuss it and share tips. I've been advertising your program on my Tumblr blog but it would be nice to see it enjoy a wider audience. Can I send you 20 bucks? I love this thing!

Thanks for your feedback, Bob.

For us developers it's sometimes hard to describe something with the best possible words because we have created it and know how it works, also we don't like to describe it too broad and in too easy words to not make someone feel uncomfortable. So feedback from someone with another point of view is helpful.
Also it is not a difficulty for us to set up a forum, the problem is we do not have time to maintain it due to work load and lack of time.

We need (also) some non-programmers who volunteer to help our project.
