Extra credit for choosing orange lettering on a red background. Logical and quite aesthetically pleasing.

THANK YOU. I FIND PROPER COLOR SELECTION  SOMETHING WORTH PAYIN ATTENTION TO,,, | made w/ Imgflip meme maker
Thank you,,,
That particular orange is #fcc125 (I use it a lot), which is lighter than the standard one provided but still nicely warm,,, Thinly outlined in red (or was it firebrick #b22222?) for a slight punch,,,

I t wasn't coming up,,,

However, here's some courtesy of the fine folks here:

imgflip.com/i/19n63n

I use Lynch's at the top,,,

I also fiddle with numbers. Go up to 9 or f, and they lighten, lower darkens them. Or it alters them.

Standard orange here is #ff8800 Change it to #ff8899, and you get a pink like the letters in the meme here. #ff8866 gives a hue to match that ring of sunny glare,,,

Yeah....it doesn't come up for me either. Not sure why not....Sorry about that. It was just the 1,600-color pallette I use. I found it when I googled HTML COLOR CHARTS.

They mention that in that thread too.
But the one I referrred to is pretty nice also,,,

And lose all the stupid memes I made plus all the memes and comments others took the time and effort to reply with? Why would I want to lose all that if that's what I'm here for?

I favor originality, but as you pointed out on your meme, memeing is about passing around popular ones.

However, it may still allow for an expanded focus to include those less immediately eye catching, but worthy nevertheless,,,

Another user had recently suggested there should be a separate front page for Original ImgFlip Content. It's great idea but too often we borrow or adapt unconsciously without knowing it. The line can get real blurry. For example movie remakes and modern adaptations of Shakespeare plays. The premises may not be original but the plot can be entirely different with different casts bringing in different personalities to existing characters. You can't complete say they're original or unoriginal.

Like many I'm here for the laughs and I value what makes me laugh. If it is new and original then it's a bonus. Splitting hairs is just not fun. :)

Exactly. Plus some might think that entails posting an already existing meme as opposed to captioning one, some might claim they came up with it independently with no idea it already existed, a slight alteration via punctuation, spelling, or template can turn it essentially original, etc.

I had proposed in the past separate pages for funny, political & religious, and NSFW memes, etc, but again, the fudging of lines and how many categories might there possibly be needed?

That might not be a bad idea. Eliminating the points altogether could eliminate unnecessary tension.
5 ups, 7y
Exactly. It can quell claims of people possibly using alts or only voting for favorites,,,

Then you should do the right thing and make sure you hide it well so you don't get caught memeing in class,,,

That's what I do...except I sometimes get caught.

A problem with that would be that the really good memes wouldn't get any front page recognition and they'd be stuck on the page as some really shitty memes.
5 ups, 7y,

IMHO, there a re plenty of "shitty memes" on the front page, and lots of hilarious ones that are lost in the shuffle.

Sad but true.

Lego Meme Week had to be the worst. A bunch of the same, "Ouch, I stepped on a Lego."
The meme about finding the sock was ridiculous.
And then one about the memer happy because he finally washed his dishes. No joke, no funny pic, no irony. He just got around to cleaning them.

The "Repost Someone Else's Meme Week" had ignored memes get recognized at last because popular memers posted them.

I figure just getting them there through views and comments.

Problem with that is some may get views because they're so idiotic or relulsive or something people want a close look to see if they're getting it right or to read any comments.
Another is that some good ones get lots of votes but not many comments because there's nothing easy to say in regards to it, and they don't get many views at first. So upvotes do a service there,,,

Replacing the straight up or down deal we have now with a 5 point system, like customer reviews on Amazon, would be the best solution. It has all the advantage of feedback, with none of the problems we are currently experiencing.
1 up, 7y
But that would just complicate site functions. Plus with Amazon, those are product reviews from people who purchased the item. Here, it would be open to anyone, including those with nothing more but a personal grievance invested,,,

Ironic that this has loads of upvotes (and probably a few downvotes as well, I'll be honest)
