Blank White Template

I didn’t have to click the library button with a stock image. So, I reckon it will be a new step when uploading images going forward.

What do you mean by stock image? Stock from imgflip? Every time I upload any image from my phone it does it...

Yes, templates that are already on imgflip.

OK. I'm finding myself uploading and creating a lot more new meme templates (as public) because I can't find the right ones in imgflip's stock. What is need to figure out is, if I click the button for my library, will it save it as one of my public "meme generator" templates, or does it save it in a separate, private collection. And if so, how do I access that?

Well, I found out the accessing the private templates part. That link that SilverTheShinyEevee posted in the first comment will get you there. And it is a separate private template spot. It just seems to be unnecessary to me. I would just keep private templates on my phone. Anyway, now to figure out how to post one of the private templates as a comment...

I wish some stuff was left alone. Another thing that gets me is they took away the button that hides all the editing boxes so you can see the finished piece before creating it. I sometimes have a bunch of small items and can’t see through all the resize frames how it all lines up. Now, I can sometimes get it to work if I click on the text box, but that doesn’t always work. Hurrumph!

I hear ya. You just have to find the right combo of taps to make the boxes go away. And sometimes that doesn't work. Sometimes its easier for me to put it together on my picsart app before uploading. You can do alot with that app, and it has a bit more letter fonts. But even that is limiting unless you start paying for more options. I still don't mess with AI though. Ill just keep making memes the "old fashioned" way...😄

I miss the old days, although I really like some of the updates over the years. I like to modify things to make them just right for whatever I want it to be. I don’t know if I’ll start using an app to do that, but it might be the better option. The other thing about the olden days, was you usually got more traffic seeing your work. Nowadays, I’d go and make a comment which might get an upvote. I wouldn’t mind if people laughed, but didn’t upvote, but I don’t think they’re even laughing. I’m too old and out of touch. 😁

Me too. I'm thinking about making a gen.X stream. Cause not everyone on here gets our humor. Don't know how many followers I'd get though...

If you make a gen X stream, will you tell better jokes?! 😉 and will you promise to keep boring kids off it? I'm already dreading summer when all of them get out on summer vacation and flood imgflip with nonsense.

Lol, I can't promise any of those.😄  If I knew a way that I could keep non-Gen X er's off the stream, that would be great.  Like maybe have them answer a few questions to prove their age to join.  Actually, they should do that with a lot of streams...  Anyway, I'm hoping that they wouldn't get the jokes so often that they wouldn't want to join.   I might try it out.  Imgflip def needs something for our generation.  I'm kinda interested to see how many of us there are still on here.  I'll let you know.  I've got a birthday coming up in May, maybe I'll start it then...

No, those are private templates. Check imgflip.com/my-templates?q=&;generator=&sort=latest&transparent=on .

So, my library are my private templates? I don't have any of those. I save them as public, or not at all.

Copy and paste, don't click.

I don't think I can copy and paste images. Just upload or download.

I meant the link.

Oh, gotcha.👍

Oh it's a great feature. Instead of how it used to be to upload a mean comment which was 1 single simle step, we now get to do it in 5. Or is it 6? Talk about more bang for your buck. Plus the additional 3 or 4 to delete the image once you're done using it. The feature is so good, they really should have reserved it for Imgflip Pro, I mean they would have been lining up around the block to sign up for that one.

I guess somebody's gotta make it look like they're making improvements...🤷‍♂️

It's so ridiculous. The check should be optional, not the default. And it's confusing too, it says if you turn off the check then you don't give anybody else the ability to take your own meme and change the wording even if to mock you with it, which is actually against the TOS.

It's like eBay. They made bidding more complicated, so I just don't bid on stuff anymore. If they really don't want my money that badly, I don't have to give it to them for silliness like that.

I guess somebody had to look like they're earning their paycheck.

Lol, I think thats why a lot of stupid stuff like that happens. But I do like the colors from image option! That was a definite improvement for non-pro users! Helps get rid of pesky watermarks...

I was critical of that in the beginning because it got rid of half of the the colors that I came up with for my own use. But I've since realized, yes, it is actually a good function.

But this new one is absolutely ridiculous. For 10 years I've been doing it the same way, and do it automatically the old way, so I have to keep redoing it now.

Plus it's a check in a box, the option should be whether or not we want to check the box, not that the check is the automatic default option. There's no way that over time this one's going to look not so bad.

I'm figuring maybe somebody just goofed up and did it backwards, and they don't want to stay up half the night redoing it to get it properly done.
