Noticed how popular those quotes added to some form of background or picture have become? You’ve GOT to have pictures for Pinterest (no duh, eh? Smile). Facebook posts with pictures perform better than ones without them and including a picture in your blog posts is a great way to build traffic and interest too.
Some people call them graphic quotes.
Some call them picture graphics.
Some call them image quotes.
Regardless, they’re all the same thing!
The challenge? If you’re not a graphic designer, you’re likely probably not too interested in learning something like Photoshop or Photoshop Elements or Gimp or any of those (let alone paying the HUGE price tag for Photoshop and some of the other graphics tools). Yes, there are some free alternatives to Photoshop and you STILL need to understand the language of the experts to doing something simple like add your favorite quote to a background and get on to other stuff.
The downside? Many of these tools put their name on their image on limit the backgrounds and font choices.
AND they still rock for! Give one or more of them a whirl and share your thoughts and results in the comments!

I totally agree that creating quote images is hard when you’re not a graphic designer! That’s why I use Stencil (getstencil.com). I search for a quote by topic, pop in a background photo (over 1 million to choose from!) and I’m done! There are so many fonts and icons to choose from too. You should totally give it a shot :)
Hi Serene, you’re so right and Stencil is one of many tools I use and love. Glad you found something that works…that’s the most important part, isn’t it? So many tools, so little time (lol). Blessings. MamaRed
