Is Your Model Meme-Worthy?

If you’re a fan of our Facebook page or you’ve been keeping up with our blog posts, our recent fascination with memes is obvious. It all started with the addition of (what we considered to be) humorous quips related to customers and artists of 3D models added to the extremely popular “Y U No Guy” meme.

But that was only the beginning of the big dream when it comes to memes. Visual content is the rising star of the Internet. While text and written content is still important, images are easy to share online.

Now all we need is you! Help us find images of models worthy of Internet stardom.  Here’s what to do:

• Search the TurboSquid catalog for images that beg to have captions. Tip: Look beyond the first image for inspiration.

• Characters or models of people are a great place to start. Look for interesting facial expressions or pre-posed action shots.

• Animals are another popular source for image macro memes. Cats have, and continue to be king of this space (thanks to sites like LOLCatz.com). Check out the thousands of animal models on TurboSquid.com to find a model to rival these feline memes.

• Once you’ve found an image worth captioning, share the image on the TurboSquid Facebook Page with your caption as a comment.

Found an image but can’t find the words? No problem, just send us the link to the image and we’ll have the staff work on a caption.
