I really don't know what the "read more/keep reading" is. I'm not really a Tumblr user. And since I'll probably not have the time to investigate nor implement this either before the 17th December, I'll leave this open as feature request.
Here is an example of a read more post.
This is the post in question. The artist uploaded several images and text:
http://randomroodles.tumblr.com/post/94742465481/astrid-ruffnut
When I reblog this post, this is what is posted on my blog:
http://mrseyker.tumblr.com/post/180925317790/astrid-ruffnut
As you can see, none of the content was reblogged.
Now, this isn't always the case.
This is another example (NSFW). The original post:
http://shaxbutt.tumblr.com/post/179673704455/oh-come-on-im-up-again-how-many-more
My reblog of said post:

Sometimes you reblog an image post with a short text and a read more link, and following that link you are treated to more images and text in the body of the post.
Sometimes it is a text only post where what you reblog is a short text with the link, and following the link you are treated to a lenghty story.
The read more method is used quite often by people that want to make explicit work not visible on people's feeds or people casually browsing the creator's blog.
I think a way to handle this when backing up a blog would be to see if OP in a reblogged chain has a link to a tumblr page. Follow that page, and save the text and images found in it.
I can't recall if someone can make such links in a reblog. To be honest, I never even learned the method by which these type of posts are created.
TumblThree already does this. An enhancement is not necessary.
Is there the ability to or going to be an option in the future to download posts passed "Read More"/"Keep Reading"?
