Recently did a UI overhaul, though it would be an improvement. Displaying 6 instead of 12 means fewer pages to scroll through on mobile phones if you aren't trying to look at the images, and it also means a slightly faster pageload. The images are only thumbnails anyway so you can't fully discern what's in the image, and need to click on "See All" either way if you want to read them fully.

Just for the record, we do not feel this is an improvement. I will tell you why. On my phone if I want to go to an option on my profile page I now have to go through more clicks and scrolling thanks to the option list being in a drop down menu. That one seemed like a step backward, as well as the thumbnails being half what they were. If you want to go to someone's page and just click on some very recent meme now it usually isn't there. Plus how many images we submitted vs how many are featured is also gone. If they care to get the feed back that is. I don't want to complain too hard because they have done some really nice stuff lately. This profile page tinkering isn't really an improvement.

STILL DOESN’T DISPLAY FEATURED MEMES IN ORDER, STILL CAN’T FIND OLD MEMES WITH SEARCH OPTION... | made w/ Imgflip meme maker
I still think there should be a fetter way to scroll through meme library. Like looking through photos on FB pages, dare I say...

definitely not an improvement - particulary since people nowadays submit like 10 images per day in various streams and not just 3 as it used to be.
thumbnails aside they give you a quick look and allow you to realize what's new at first glance.

I know, right? People are less likely to check out and comment on more of your memes...
