Add a caption in a white band above or below a photo without covering any of it
Processed in your browser. Nothing is uploaded. Updated on 24 Oct 2026.A caption in a band above the picture is how reaction posts and many social images are made: the photo stays whole and the words are easy to read. This page adds a white band above the photo, and one below if you write a second line, sized to the text, in a clean dark font, and saves the result as one picture.
Drop the photo on the page; it opens in Caption style, with a white band for the text.
Type the caption above, and a second line below if you want one.
The bands grow to fit the text, and the photo itself is not covered or cropped.
Press Download to save the captioned photo.
Meme Generator puts text on your own picture in the style everyone recognises: bold white capitals with a black outline, one line at the top and one at the bottom. The words appear on the picture as you type, so there is nothing to press until you save.
Two styles. Meme draws the text over the picture with an outline that reads on light and dark parts alike. Caption leaves the picture untouched and adds a white band above it, and one below for a second line, with clean dark text; the bands grow with the words. That is the style of reaction posts and captioned screenshots.
Your picture only. There is no bank of meme templates, because the famous pictures belong to the people who made them. Use your own photo, a screenshot or a drawing; HEIC photos from an iPhone open too.
The rest of the article, and all 6 questions about Meme Generator, are on the Meme Generator page.
Drop the picture on this page and type the top and bottom text. The words appear on the picture as you type, in white capitals with a black outline, sized to fit the width. Press Download to save the meme as a JPG or PNG with no watermark.
The famous meme pictures are photos and film stills that belong to other people. Using your own photo, screenshot or drawing keeps you clear of that, and the page works the same with any picture you have the right to use, up to 50 MB.
Each text box is as wide as the picture less a small margin and at most a quarter of its height. The largest size at which the text fits in up to four lines is used, so a short line is big and a long one wraps and shrinks. Largest text size limits it further.
Meme draws outlined capitals on top of the picture. Caption leaves the picture whole and adds a white band above it, and one below for a second line, with dark text inside. The bands grow to fit the words, so the result is taller than the original.
