Great idea! 'Color text that matches' if you can't read it.

I mostly use yellow and green. If using a black and white picture I will stick to black and white text. On occasions I do match them, like with Creepy Condescending Wonka I'll use purple, depends on the meme :)

I end up using yellow & green a lot. I like how that The_Lapsed_Jedi always uses yellow & blue text,& I can spot his meme's right off.

I noticed that. Kind of a cool signature move.

Not sure if you're looking for a tip.

I use Pixolor on my phone to find the color code of a pixel in the image or http://html-color-codes.com for something close.

well, I wasn't but then I didn't know there WAS a tip. Thanks! I don't use the site from my phone very often because I find it to be a pain in the neck. But this will now enable me in my need to find exact matches for what ever my heart desires! Thanks!

You're welcome. I do most of my imgflipping from my phone, so I've got a few go-to apps to edit and help me make stuff.

Your graphics software should have a 'color picker' which identifies and gives you the color in RGB, Hex, and maybe other formats.

You click on the item you want to match, and it gives you the code(s).

Take a look and you'll find it. If not, Google or YouTube will tell you where it is. :-)

Graphics software.... I didn't think I could use that in the website? I got something now that I have not yet had the chance to work with. Maybe later I'll get the time to figure it out!

I thought you would download the picture, grab the color, then use it on the site (if they let you input a code).

Since I'm not the fancy type, I've only used black and white for text. Let me go check if they let you specify a code...

*checks*

They do. Click on the white color box and you'll see a code: #ffffff. This is the code for white in hexadecimal. Click on the black color box and you'll see the code #000000 for black.

So you can grab colors on your laptop, then specify them in that box. Make sure to use the prefix '#'. The code represents how much of red, green, and blue the color has.

All zeros, means there are none of these colors. All 'f' means each is at the max. 'F' is the highest digit in hex. All max value creates white when mixed together.

More specifically, the six digits are broken down into this layout: RR GG BB. The six digits are mapped onto that template and blended by the software when creating a color.

Many websites have elements specified with this scheme and the color is rendered on the fly, each time the page is displayed.

Oop, almost forgot. The codes are not case sensitive. #ffffff is the same as #FFFFFF.

And there you go. That's enough info to match your colors exactly. There are hex color charts on the web if you have a color name (eggshell, firebrick red, hunter green, etc...) and want the hex code. Check it out if you're interested.

And have fun with colors. :-)

Like posting a meme response, I think. If you really want to, you'll do the extra clicking.

Here are a few links with color codes and names, to save a few downloads and clicks:
http://cloford.com/resources/colours/500col.htm
http://www.color-hex.com/color-names.html

This one is alphabetical by color name:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_colors:_A%E2%80%93F

Who knows, you may find it useful one day.

And you could try it before the 'emergency' arises. ;-)

You can go to one of those pages and scan for 'blue' or 'taupe', for example. Then grab the code, and type in right in (remember the '#') and you're all set.

Please let me know which meme you use it on - if you do. :-)
3 ups, 7y
I will let you know! I can't wait to try it out!

So I feel like a total moron here, but how do you get solid color text? Do you have to have imgflip pro, or a special app?
4 ups, 7y,

There are two boxes next to where you enter text. The first fills the color in solid, the second does the outline.

lol I actually do sort of like it, and I often just prefer plain old white text. But now I have more options. TammyFaye always said her colorful text memes did better. One time not knowing, she did the exact meme I'd done which got two upvotes, and hers made the front page. Only difference was the colored text.
4 ups, 7y
For me, the meme is more appealing, and it shows that the person took a little extra time on it. :-)

Another way I like to do it is use the colors to go along with the sentiment. For example here red letters being the hot thing to do (for me at least) the green representing envy. Or on the Exit 12 template I may put the Green (for go) letters on the exit, and the red (for stop going that way) on the highway lane. I know. See abive the comment on issues. LOL...
