Tips for Best Results

Use Impact Font

Impact is the classic meme font and works great for GIFs due to its bold, easy-to-read style.

Add Outlines

A black outline (2-3px) helps text stand out against any background color.

Position Carefully

Avoid placing text where it covers important parts of the animation.
