Many students use Gimp 2 on their computers because it is open-source software (free for the greater good and they still update it for improvements). Chromebook Users, it should already be installed! It is also one of the leading alternatives to PhotoShop (which we will be using in the SS-11 Mac Lab). Create TWO DIFFERENT layers, include text and a photo in your meme. If you got your idea off another site (like iFunny), be sure you have recreated the idea in your own way (i.e. find your own photo, and include your own font or text). Gimp reated their own Gimp Tutorials you can read, but you can also view Beginner Tutorials on YouTube.
