An API to generate meme images based solely on requested URLs.

Visit the live site at http://memegen.link to browse the API and view examples.

MemeGen URLs contain all the information necessary to generate the image. For example, http://memegen.link/buzz/memes/memes-everywhere.jpg produces:

But, the site can also produce masked URLs to conceal the joke:

http://memegen.link/_YnV6egltZW1lcy9tZW1lcy1ldmVyeXdoZXJl.jpg

For any MemeGen image, lose the extension to see a list of all format options:

http://memegen.link/buzz/memes/memes-everywhere

Spaces can be inserted using dashes or underscores:

• dash (-) → space ( )
• underscore _ → space ( )
• dashes (--) → dash (-)
• underscores (__) → underscore (_)

Reserved URL characters can be escaped:

• tilde + Q (~q) → question mark (?)
• tilde + P (~p) → percentage (%)

For example: http://memegen.link/doge/special-characters~q/underscore__-dash--.jpg

To add a new template, please follow the contributor instructions.
