Name Dallas Clayton
Location Los Angeles
First Post September 2010

Dallas Clayton wrote a book for his son about dreaming big, put it online, and his life changed forever. An Awesome Book has inspired both kids and adults with its fantastical language and enchanting imagery, and now he travels the world reading to kids while writing children’s books for a living. He formed the Awesome World Foundation to promote children’s literacy, and his second work, An Awesome Book of Thanks, arrives this month. Dallas blogs about his writing and art, his life as a children’s author, and his daily magical adventures.

Name Dean Trippe
Location Austin, Texas
First Post November 2009

Self-described alien robot ninja wizard (from the future) Dean Trippe writes and draws comics. Dean is the mastermind of the hugely popular Project: Rooftop, a “superhero fashion site.” Earlier this year, he created the popular photo series Barack Obama Looking at Awesome Things which is amazingly self-explanatory (and awesome). Dean is passionate about comics as a storytelling medium, and uses his Tumblr blog to share his work and the work he loves. “Comics can tell absolutely any kind of story, but is also the birthplace of the current best iteration of the hero myths mankind has told itself since the beginning of time, the superhero,” he says.

In an ongoing effort to improve reblog attribution, we’re experimenting with new formatting that adds the original poster’s link to the automatically generated “via” text if their link was removed from the post by an intermediate reblogger.

You are still, of course, able to edit the automatic attribution when reblogging a post.

In addition to encouraging credit for original posters, this will also make it much safer for blogs with built-in reblog credits (like the Redux theme) to remove the inline “via” links.
