Funny Captioned Pictures Biography
Following in the footsteps of crossover groups like Underworld, the South London trio Dirty Vegas took electronica up the pop charts with their hit single "Days Go By." The group formed in 2001 when DJs Ben Harris and Paul Harris (unrelated) joined forces with their old friend, singer Steve Smith. Smith had just returned from Ibiza, a clubber-friendly island that inspired him to write an early version of "Days Go By." The finished track became a club hit across the world and a Top 30 U.K. hit when it was released in late 2001. A year later, it would be featured in an American commercial for the Mitsubishi Eclipse, exposure that helped the track to climb up the U.S. pop charts, top Billboard's dance chart, and eventually win the Grammy for Best Dance Recording. A self-titled album on the Capitol label also arrived in 2002, and remix work for the likes of Justin Timberlake and Madonna followed. The Ultra label released their mix album A Night at the Tables in 2003 and then, in 2004, the studio album One found the group shifting toward a more guitar-based sound. They took a break in 2005 with each member working on separate projects, including Smith's solo album This Town, which appeared in 2008. In 2009 they were back to their original sound with the single "Changes," plus a remix of Ladytron's track "Tomorrow." Two years later, the Electric Love album combined the swirling electronica of their debut with the melodic indie pop sound of their sophomore effort.

What is a captioned picture? Good question. A captioned picture is a photo that has been either edited with text or had a word balloon attached. Usually, a captioned picture tells a story, but it can also be a one-liner that explains a situation the picture provides.

How do you make a captioned picture? You need a basic photo editor. The most basic is the Paint program that probably came with your computer. This tutorial will show you how to use Paint. You can also use a photo editor like the Print Shop. However, in this article, we will assume you are using Paint.

The goal of the captioned picture is to make others laugh. Your first step, therefore, is to find a picture with potential humor. You can use a search engine to find an image, or you can browse the gallery here on CoE! Usually, a close-up with strange facial expressions, a movement shot, or a conversation shot have good potential. A far angle or back shot are usually harder to caption.

There are several reasons this picture works. First, Boromir has a great smile. Second, there are some blank spaces near the top and bottom that text can be placed in. Third, the background is a uniform color, making captioning easier.

Save your selected picture to your computer, then go into the Paint program. Open your photo. Select the Writing tool (usually shown with the “A” symbol) and select an area to type in. People read from top to bottom, left to right, so organize your lines accordingly.

I like to think about what might be happening. What is making him laugh? Why is it funny? There could be something funny happening just off camera, or he could be listening to something… Perhaps he has just understood a joke… I am going with the story that someone told him a joke a few days ago and he only just got it.

Select an easy-to-read font, and a contrasting color, so people can read your joke. I would not want to pick grey, because the background is also grey. I chose white, but light blue, pale yellow, or even lime green or bright orange would work!

You then want to type your lines into your picture. Remember, placement is very important.

If you put a line of text on, or directly next to, a character, it usually tells what that person is saying. Thus, the line “Oh now I get it! That’s funny!” is obviously what Boromir is saying.

You may want to test your captions out on a few friends or family members. If they don’t think it’s very funny, you might want to think about changing your lines, or even trying a whole new situation.
