This blank is 702 x 395 px and is a still image, so place the most important words where they stay readable after a feed crop. The wide frame works best when the caption stays centered so timeline crops do not cut off the joke.

The sample captions leave room for a setup and a punchline without turning into a paragraph. 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

PatternWhy it works

Common mistakes with this blank

  • Writing a caption that explains the whole joke instead of letting the Roll Safe Think About It 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.
