As I was preparing my recent posts on images I came across image generator tools you may find a place for in some of your less serious posts.
Its amazing how much I look like my mother once I add a 1960′s look.
A range of generators including:
- Easy Street – street sign generator
- Say What – add speech bubbles to an uploaded photo
- roflbot Add text to an image -create lolcat or lolband type images
Another site with multiple generators. e.g.
- Rubics Cube Generator – upload an image and turn it into a rubics cube
Doppel Me – create your own avatar.
There are many different kinds of generators at Image Chef – example:
Comic Strip Generator – choose backgrounds, characters and add your own text.
Why would you want to do this for fun you may be asking – well, you may want to submit them to graphjam:
Big Huge Labs Flickr Toys
LoonaPix – add frames and borders and trim your images
Why would you want to create silly images?:
- As a break from tedious work.
- You need more practice perfecting procrastination
- To add special effect images to your blog and possibly get them Stumbleupon Photoblogged – hint hint.
- You want to be a star contributor on:
- icanhascheezerburger sites (lolcats, loldogs, pundit kitchen….), althouth they do provide their own generator (if you need to learn lolcat speak try the Definitive Lolcats Glossary) or take a PAWS Universitee course
- graphjam
- Just to be silly – the only reason needed?
Thanks to the Generator Blog for putting me onto some of the image generator tools- it would have saved me a lot of time if I had found this site to begin with.
Excellent work Sue. Now I have to find some time to play with these. I have used a few before. I like it that they are all so easy to use.

thanks for pointing out doppelme. i’ve been looking for a way to generate an avatar of sorts, which i can use for my profile pages so they show more than just a grey box. but at the same time, i don’t want to use a yahoo avatar, which is the only other avatar site i’d come across until today. i like that with doppelme, i can try to come up with something resembling me, but with an aesthetic i find pleasing.

I loved the convivial abstraction generator from image chef. That’s a meritorious activity sue! You totally found some toil looking now those sites!!! Thanks!
How do I make an icon with animated text and such? I was inspired to make an icon for a friend when I clicked on her myspace pictures to see the new ones, and just as I clicked to comment a picture of hers with a piano in it, some lyrics of a song by Go Fish I love played.I am planning on using the keys of the piano as the background because there is just something about the lighting and coloration of the pic that I love. The text will be pink because she loves that color.I want to do more than just stick text on an image. I want to make certain words stand out with animation and different fonts, but I’m not sure how. Is there any free online generator or whatever?
Now this is one page I am adding to my favorites! I am a good website developer but just can’t do graphics. This handy little collection will help me no ends.
Thanks very very much!

Definitely some very useful tools for those of us who want to save time with our graphics design, Photoshop is always the most useful tool for graphics design but these are some great quick substitutes that can cut the time required, we all know Photoshop projects can take a little longer then we’d like.
Thanks (Bookmarked!)

Wow…lovely, thanks for your info. Now I got some more things to play with.
Some of these are really neat. I’d seen some pictures of people like the Yearbook Yourself pics and wondered where they’d got them done; now I know! Unfortunately it seems the site is not open again until the Summer, so I’ll just have to play with the avatar maker instead!
Great finds!
That Easy Street sign website is awesome, OMG, I can’t believe how fast it shows your images, its almost instantaneous, I can’t believe it!
I want to create a change the icon image for a program on my desktop.
I know how to do that … but my question is how to create an .ico from a .jpg using an online generator. The ones I’ve found are horrible and I don’t want to download a new program.
Great tools. Thanks. I like most superstickies. I will use them today to preapre an auction. The generators are really useful and pretty.
That is so Cool. I am intending to creat simmilar site!
nice generator, really cool..
First thx. i would like such kind of stuff and hobby of collecting such different tools related to image generator or converter tools.
These tools are great!! You could use a lot of these images and make personalised birthday cards!! I love tools like this.. computers still amaze me!

Does anyone know an online generator that would let me blend these two images together? Please let me know, as I don’t have any sort of programmes that would allow me to do this.
amazing how technology has come so far in the past 10 years!
Cool tools! And must say this is really great technology for generating image online.
How do I download an online image with a PHP script? If I use file_get_contents it is giving me the unicode file, but then how do I change it back to an image and of specific size also?
Amazing image generator tools. Thanks for share good information.
This is very great and interesting information. But I do not really know whether it works like that.
The resolution of the gif animation will be the resolution of the first frame you upload. If you want to resize your images, you can use our free online image resize application.
The next frames will be positioned on the top-left corner. For the best results, you should upload frames with identical resolutions.
Cool tools! And must say this is really great technology for generating image online.

I have tried the online code generators,they ask for a url which i obtained by uploading my image to imageshack and then pasting the given url over.

FreshGenerator is an online web design tool that you can use to create graphic elements used in many web 2.0 sites. It can be used to create boxes of different styles and colors. You don’t have to worry about image sizes and playing with colors for it allows you to change them until it becomes the image that you are looking for.
