This blank is 537 x 902 px and is a still image, so place the most important words where they stay readable after a feed crop. The tall frame gives you room for a short setup near the top and a payoff below the main subject.
The sample captions are more detailed, so trim aggressively before posting on small screens. Before exporting, read the caption once without looking at the image; if it still needs a long explanation, switch to a simpler setup or a more obvious related template.
Caption patterns to try
| Pattern | Why it works |
|---|---|
| Sometimes the real treasure is the trauma we caused along the way. - The Deep | This works because it gives the reader a specific situation instead of a vague label. |
| If you really think about it, I'm the most oppressed hero. The ocean is basically a prison they put me in charge of. - The Deep | This pattern keeps the setup concrete, which helps the template carry the reaction. |
| A wise man once told me to read the room. I don't know what room. I was underwater. - The Deep | This is a useful direction when you want the punchline to feel personal or self-aware. |
Common mistakes with this blank
- Writing a caption that explains the whole joke instead of letting the Deep Thoughts with the Deep image do part of the work.
- Placing text over the most expressive part of the image, especially faces, gestures, signs, or the main action.
- Using three different ideas in one meme. This template works better when it points at one clear situation.
- Exporting before checking the meme at phone size. If the smallest words blur together, shorten the caption first.
