Common mistakes

Using text colors that blend into the image background

Consequence: Low-contrast text becomes unreadable against similar-colored backgrounds.

Fix: Use high-contrast color combinations: white text with black outline, or vice versa.

Making text too small for mobile viewing

Consequence: Small text becomes illegible when the meme is viewed on phone screens.

Fix: Use large, bold fonts (Impact or similar) that remain readable at small sizes.

Placing text over important image details

Consequence: Text overlay can obscure the key visual element of the meme.

Fix: Position text in empty areas of the image, or increase the outline width so the text stays readable over any background.

Using low-contrast text colors

Consequence: Text that blends into the image background becomes unreadable.

Fix: Use high-contrast combinations like white text with black outline or vice versa.

Best practices

  • Check supported file formats before uploading
