How to make a funny meme
- Keep it short. The best captions are a few words. Put the setup on top and the punchline at the bottom.
- Make it relatable. Everyday situations, like work, school, Mondays or code that finally runs, are shared the most.
- Use a clear image. Expressive faces and simple scenes leave room for the text and read well on small screens.
- Check readability on a phone. Bold white text with a black outline stays visible on any background.
Caption styles

Use images you have the right to use
Use your own photos, images you have permission to use, or pictures licensed for reuse. Be careful with photos of private people, and remember that some images and characters are protected by copyright. Memes made from your own photos of pets, friends (with their OK) or everyday moments are often the most original anyway.
Tips
- Need to crop the picture first? Use Crop Image.
- Want a smaller file for messaging apps? Download as JPG, or run it through the Image Compressor.
- Hide names or faces in a screenshot meme with Blur Image.
