Meme, Caption & Quote Maker
Captions or free text on any image, or a quote set on a colour or a photo.
Free tools that run in your browser. Nothing you type, open or create is uploaded to NerdBible or anyone else.
No picture?
Drag the extra text boxes on the picture to place them. With the picture focused, arrow keys move the selected box (hold Shift for bigger steps).
Extra text boxes
Captions use the classic heavy meme lettering with a black outline, drawn with fonts already on your device (Impact where it is installed, otherwise the heaviest similar font available), so it may look slightly different on a phone than on a computer. Only use images you have the right to share.
How to use it
- Pick Meme for captions on a picture, or Quote image for a quote set on a colour or a photo.
- Choose or drop an image, or start with a blank square.
- Type the top and bottom captions; long text wraps onto more lines by itself.
- Add extra text boxes if you need them and drag them into place on the picture.
- Pick JPG or PNG and press Download.
- For a quote image, type the quote and author, pick square, portrait, landscape or story size, choose colours or a background photo, and download it.
Questions
Is my image uploaded?
No. The meme is drawn by your browser on your device and saved from there. There is no watermark added.
Why does the font look different on my phone?
The tool uses fonts already installed on your device instead of downloading one. Impact is on most Windows and Mac computers; phones fall back to the closest heavy font they have.
How do I move a caption with the keyboard?
Select a text box with its Select button, then focus the picture (press Tab until it is outlined) and use the arrow keys. Typing in the text fields is never affected.
How do I make a quote image?
Open Quote image, type the quote and, if you like, who said it. The text is sized to fit by itself. Pick a size: square suits most feeds, portrait takes more room on phones, landscape suits link previews and slides, and story fills a phone screen. Choose a colour pair, or use your own photo as the background and darken it until the text is easy to read.
Can I quote anyone in a quote image?
Short quotes with the speaker named are widely shared, but check the wording and who really said it before you post: many popular quotes are misattributed. Only use background photos you have the right to share.
Which format should I save as?
JPG makes smaller files for photos and is accepted everywhere. PNG keeps edges perfectly sharp, which suits screenshots and drawings.
About this tool
About the meme and quote maker
This tool puts text on a picture: the classic meme layout with a caption at the top and bottom, or free text boxes you can place anywhere. Start from any image on your device, such as a photo, a screenshot or a reaction picture you already have.
Making a meme
- Choose or drop an image.
- Type the top and bottom captions. The traditional look is bold white capitals with a black outline, which stays readable on both light and dark pictures.
- Add extra text boxes if you need them and drag them into place, setting the size of each one. One text and outline colour applies to all the captions.
- Download the finished image.
Quote images
The Quote image tab sets a quote and its author on a plain colour or on your own photo, darkened so the text stays readable. Pick square for most feeds, portrait for phones, landscape for link previews and slides, or story to fill a phone screen. The text is sized to fit automatically, and the tool warns when the colours are too close to read.
Tips
Short captions read best: if a line wraps three times, the joke usually needs trimming. Keep important text away from the very edges, because some apps crop thumbnails. Captions are also useful beyond memes, for labelling a screenshot, adding a title to a slide image or annotating a photo for a group chat.
Only use images you have the right to use, particularly if the result is for a business account.
The image and your text stay on your device; nothing is uploaded.
