A front page meme can come from anyone (links in comments)!

Not just thanking you for mine, this bridges the gap between new and old. It also shows newer users it's possible thanks socrates

There are some users on imgflip who go around saying things like "You have to be popular on imgflip to get views and upvotes" so the main purpose behind putting this together was to show that's not exactly true. Yes, it's easier for popular users to get views and votes (because people click on their profiles), but as you've seen, it's not impossible for newer users to have successful memes. So that was the main idea behind it.

But yes, it's also an encouragement for newer users. You never know what meme (or gif) is going to be successful here, and new users can get on the front page too. :)

I am going to thank you for each one. If I could upvote again I would be doing that also

It's nice of you to say that. I'm glad you appreciate it.

Thank you socrates, I'd head over with my upvote gun but I wouldn't get any kills ;)

That's mine! :D

The way I compiled this list was to scroll through the front page, clicking on the user's profile for each front page meme or gif.

If their score was less than the #100 user, I listed the submission.

The user in the #100 spot on Feb 6 was kegdalsgard, at 317118 points.

I put the link and Click to show of this meme, because the comment didn't stay on the page when I posted it with the image. I don't know why.

Figured it might be worth another shot, since the other one didn't get seen by that many people. Just took me a while to build up the motivation again. :)

I've never seen two Komodo dragons fight like that!

:)

After all, I've had a couple recently and I'm nowhere as good as Ms. TammyFaye below.

I did a meme like this about 4 months ago, and you were on it, back when you were still a beginner! :)

Seems like an eternity ago!!!

Ha!

Those are good. I really like the shark gif, and the Doge vs cabbage gif is funny too.

thx

But to add up points on imgflip, it's about comments too, not just memes. Not that the points matter that much in the long run anyway.

week
leader board

Yup! :)

Thx!

No problem. I was just trying to show people that it's not impossible for users who aren't on the Top 100 leaderboard yet to get a meme on the front page.

Yeah, but it's super hard to get to the front page if you're a person like me, I was honestly surprised when My meme hit the front page

It's really cool how you were so enthusiastic about it. :)

:)

Keep trying different things. :)

Lol, I actually should have one though....
I have a lot of ideas but when I get on imgflip they go blank from my head. :(

My luck... Lol. I do have a idea in the works that I am trying to work out, so we'll see what happens with that.

:o

If it was, I didn't see it.

K just checking

I'm no meme expert, so take this with a grain of salt, but just because your memes don't regularly get onto the front page doesn't necessarily mean they're worse than other memes people are making on the site. :)

Aahh, So when would be the best time to submit a meme? (I am in Eastern Time, 9:30pm) It might help.

I don't think it's that easy. If you try different ways to get your memes onto the front page, I think you're just going to find different ways to frustrate yourself.

I would recommend the advice I've put here in the meme comment. It's what I did. As it happens, that turned out to help me get a lot more more of my memes noticed than I used to, maybe because when you comment on people's memes they sometimes come check out your memes too. But I wasn't trying to do that.

And I still can't guarantee that any meme I make will be successful.

But I guess the best times to feature memes would be... times when there's the most traffic on the site? Maybe before work (8am-9am), or at lunch break, or after school for people who come home from school (3pm-6pm)? I don't really know though.

The meme commenting thing seems to be going pretty well right now... I guess? Anyways, I appreciate the advice. :)

No problem.
