I’ve got an epic meme I’m working on that has nine images. Can’t get the seventh one to load. I’ve tried about a dozen times now... 😬

here's a few gimmicks for making multi-panel-memes:

DON'T type your text captions into the textboxes directly while creating multi-panel memes. use copy&paste instead; i.e. type your text into some notepad text editor then copy&paste it in total.

dragging EMPTY textboxes is crucial; moving textboxes with captions may cause issues.

format and adjust textboxes ONE BY ONE.
i.e. enter text for one textbox, format and align that textbox. When done with that textbox DELETE TEXT and void that textbox again before proceeding to the next textbox (empty textboxes don't consume processor power).
All textboxes being properly formated and in place now enter the complete caption (by copy&paste).
This should do the trick for your project.
That way I succeeded with ~12 images / ~15 textboxes without browser freezes.

If you want to make a larger multi-meme-panel you have to split it up.
My 'Queen Bohemian Rhapsody - The Complete' has 85 images.
The only way to do it was to split it up; it took me 7 parts that I eventually merged together.

Wow, thanks! I remember that Queen one! THAT was epic! Thanks for the tips! I didn’t know copy and paste would work in text boxes. And I wasn’t sure if it was my phone or the site, so I made this post. I’m glad I did, cause you guys always have good tips and insight to give. Was thinking on deleting this, but I’ll leave it up now for others who may be having the same problem. Thanks again, ArcMis! Meme on!😎👍

I have tried and multiple panels lately. Hope they haven't limited us to only six. Prolly just a glitch in the site. If you can't get it to work try uploading half of the images then downloading it and doing the same with the other half. Then upload the two halves as two images.

AWESOME IDEA! | made w/ Imgflip meme maker
Thanks! Why didn’t I think of that? Lol. I’ll try it and let you know. Yeah, I hope they are not limiting them now. Have you tried uploading more than six in a row? I’m just hoping doing it that way doesn’t diminish the quality of the picture. Well, here goes! Stay tuned...

I almost exclusively meme from my phone so if I do more than like five panels it crashes my phone. I've done super long ones before but have to dust of a computer for those lol. But it definitely works better to do them in sections. It does seem to lessen the resolution of the pics though :/ Link me if you are able to get it finished :-)

It worked! Thanks for the tip! Yeah, I only have an iPhone to meme with, but I’ve never had a problem adding more than six images before. (Like my Dudes meme, tagged “dudes”). I just submitted it in fun. I hope they don’t want me to re-submit it in a custom stream. I’m not sure if I have the linking thing down yet. When I copy and paste the link, it never appears in blue but here it is:
