How to make a meme online

  1. Add your image

    Drop a JPEG, PNG, or WebP into the drop zone, click to browse, or paste one from your clipboard.

  2. Write the captions

    Type the top text, the bottom text, or both. The caption appears on the preview in uppercase the moment you type.

  3. Adjust the style

    Set the font size and pick white or black for the text and its outline. Long captions wrap and shrink to fit.

  4. Download the meme

    The preview is the final image. Click Download to save it in the same format you started with.

Why use this tool

The classic caption style

Bold uppercase text with a thick contrasting outline, top and bottom, exactly the look people expect from a meme.

Captions wrap and auto-scale

A long caption wraps onto multiple lines and shrinks to fit the frame instead of running off the edge.

Size and color control

Scale the text from 5 to 20 percent of the image width and switch both the fill and the outline between white and black.

Multi-line and emoji

Captions can span several lines and include emoji, which render using your system font alongside the text.

The preview is the result

Every keystroke and slider move redraws the image. What you see on screen is exactly the file you download.

Private and free

The image is drawn on your device and never uploaded. There is no signup, no watermark, and no fee.

About this tool

This meme generator stamps the familiar bold caption over any image. Drop a JPEG, PNG, or WebP, type a top line, a bottom line, or both, and the preview redraws immediately with the text in uppercase, in a heavy sans style with a thick outline so it stays readable over any background. Captions are centered along the top and bottom edges, the layout most meme templates use.

The captions are built to survive real text, not just two short words. A long line wraps onto several rows, a caption that is still too tall shrinks its font until the block fits inside the frame, and a single unbroken run like a URL is split so nothing spills past the edge. You can also add your own line breaks. The font size slider sets the starting size from 5 to 20 percent of the image width, and both the fill and the outline switch between white and black, which covers dark text on a light photo as well as the usual white-on-anything look.

Everything is drawn on your own machine, so a private photo or an unreleased screenshot never leaves the browser, and the download keeps the original format. To prepare an image first, the image resizer changes its dimensions, and the image compressor makes the finished meme smaller before you post it. If you want a signature or brand mark instead of a caption, the image watermark tool handles that.

Frequently asked questions

Why is the caption always in uppercase?
The classic meme style is set in all capitals, so the tool uppercases whatever you type to match it. Type in lower case if you prefer; it is converted for display and in the downloaded image.
What happens if my caption is very long?
It wraps onto multiple lines automatically, and if the block is still too tall the font shrinks until it fits within the frame. A single long word with no spaces is broken so it never runs off the edge.
Can I put text only on the top or only on the bottom?
Yes. Fill in either field on its own, or both. An empty field simply adds no caption there, so a single top line or a single bottom line works fine.
Which image formats can I use?
JPEG, PNG, and WebP, whether dropped, browsed, or pasted from the clipboard. The meme is saved back in the same format, and very large images are downscaled to stay within browser limits.
Do emoji work in captions?
Yes. Emoji typed into a caption are drawn with your system emoji font next to the text. Their exact look depends on the device the meme is later viewed on, as usual for emoji.
Is my image uploaded anywhere?
No. The image is drawn and captioned entirely in your browser and never leaves your device, so private photos and unreleased screenshots stay on your machine.
