How to create memes? (With PhotoShop)
In this post, I shared about a basic tutorial to create a meme.
Disclaimer: I am not a designer, so I don't really know any correct terms to use. But I had been using Photoshop a while.
Step 1: Google
Find a suitable memes template online and get started.
I use Liam Neeson meme from Taken. The classic "I will find you and I will kill you".
Step 2: Create the text
In photoshop, use T to create text. Alternatively, you can find the Text button on the panel.
Remember, text on memes are all caps
The font I use is Impact, with white colour font.
Step 3: Add in shadow to the text
Right click on the Text that you created, and choose "Blending options...".
And choose outer glow.
My settings are:
- Opacity: 100%
- Spread: 3%
- Size: 7px (this varies)
Step 4: Repeat it again and you are done.
The laziest way is to duplicate the text and edit it again (for the bottom text).
Step 5: Add a watermark/signature (Optional)
Adding these can make sure your meme are not able to be steal.
Done!
This is just a simple tutorial on making a meme. Hope you guys enjoy it.

@superoo7 That's a nice tutorial bro, but I normally use MS Paint to add words into memes lol

Lazy bum. hehe
Why do you need to make the words so nicely haha
perfectionist. I want to create quality memes.
same thoughts with @howtostartablog D:
photoshop for me is though D: but still at least I got one guide to refer aha
I need photoshop sometimes to use my drawing tablets sometimes haha. Cuz some memes is more like comic type of fonts.
The easiest or laziest way is to use online meme generator (PS they put watermark on the memes)
Wah u have a drawing tablet? Jelly..

Seldom use it, mainly for me to write notes. (Save the environment, say no to paper)
Wah so cheap. I should get one to draw dumb comics

I stopped reading once I see the word "photoshop".. hahaha
Lol why not hehe
Extremely powerful but difficult as hell.. especially when it comes to layering... But I admit, doing it on Photoshop is much better than some stupid app.. Just like taking photos with a pro camera vs handphone..
More things to do with PhotoShop. haha manipulate ppl face ehem.
Like I said, PS is extremely powerful, deadly and scary at the same time... it is just the difficulty of learning... As the matter of fact, it is true for all Adobe softwares.
Taking meme creation to the next level!
Thx for the tutorial..what program did you use?
