Meme Generator: what it does and when to use it
The Meme Generator adds the classic meme captions: one line at the top, one at the bottom, in bold capital letters with a black outline so they read on any picture. Text size, margin, colour and outline are adjustable, and Force capitals can be turned off for a modern sentence-case style.
Short captions work best, because memes are usually seen small and quickly: a few words per line. The outline is what makes white text readable on both light and dark parts of the image, so keep it on unless the background is plain.
Use images you have the right to use. Many popular meme templates are stills from films or photos of real people, and publishing them, especially for advertising, can raise copyright or personality rights issues. For captions placed anywhere on the picture, with other fonts, use Add Text to Image.
