Hi HiveMind- I have seen that people have amazing pictures and have quoteables on them. How do I create this? here is a link, but an example is Oprah, so praying buddha hands image and a great quote, how do I do this in a professional looking way, not a meme type of things. thanks! Link.

I imagine most of the time it's done in Photoshop, but I googled "inspiration quote creator" and found this and this, which seem to be what you want.

i use my phone (ios) to create stuff like that all the time - Phonto and Typorama are the apps i use. just upload a photo (either one i take with my camera or one i find on google or pinterest), and then type in a quote and play with pretty fonts. hopefully that helps!

Canva is a free online service that makes this pretty easy. It would take you literally 5 minutes from the time you logged in.

Canva, as Nevin said. Pablo is another web-based app. On iOS: WordSwag & Over. Over allows you to install your own fonts, too.

Yep, canva. I manage a professional social media team and the non-designers often use it to make image+quote shareable graphics because it's free and faster than photoshop (if you're not well-versed in PS).

Yes, Canva and Pablo are what I came to recommend.
