Tips for a better New Year meme

Use a clock striking midnight as your image, then caption it with a failed resolution—like 'This year I'll finally stop procrastinating... next year.'

Is the New Year meme generator free?

Yes — it is free, runs entirely in your browser and needs no account. Your image is never uploaded unless you choose to save it to meme.am. Finished memes carry a small meme.am credit in the corner.

Can I swap a face onto a New Year meme?

Not with this editor — it adds captions on top of the image rather than changing the image itself. Replacing a face needs a separate tool, and which one depends on the format: a still, an animated GIF and a video clip each need different handling. Our guide to swapping faces on memes covers all three, along with what makes a swap look convincing.
