Add meme template / font to the assets-package

[gsantner]

Post suggestions for inclusion in the app here. The assets are stored in a seperate git repository: https://github.com/gsantner/memetastic-assets

You can maybe find something suitable here:

• Fonts: 1001fonts | Font Squirell | fontspace | Google Fonts | Identify font
• Memes: knowyourmeme.com | /r/MemeTemplatesOfficial | memes.at

Please add comic sans font. Doge memes are not working otherwise :)

@bisam
Right, we need such a font.
The problem is that Comic Sans is not under a free license, could you please use the search on the listed sources to find something simliar? (or any other websearch)

Comic Relief is described (https://fontlibrary.org/de/font/comic-relief) e.g. as:

Comic Relief is a typeface designed to be metrically equivalent to the popular Comic Sans MS. Comic Relief can be used in place of Comic Sans MS without having to move, resize, or reset any part of the copy. Comic Relief is freely available via loudifier.com/comic-relief as a .ttf, FontForge .sfd project, and as a web-ready font-face kit. It is copylefted using the SIL Open Font License, so feel free to use it, modify it, or embed it as you see fit.

List of some comic fonts (please look at them and tell what fits goods; can be more than 1):

• http://www.andrewbrettwatson.com/index.php/fun/design/191-free-alternatives-to-comic-sans

Heres a small comparision:

For me those 3 feel like a solid free replacement, Comic Relief I think is the best matching one.

@bisam Updated comic sans pictures

[bisam]

I found too more:

• under SIL OFL Comic Neue
• under Creative Commons: Doge Sans

I find Doge Sans (in bold) to be the most accurate :)

[gsantner]

I can only find dogesans-regular, with bold you mean border+text=black? or setting font to bold?
(because there is no bold option in the app, and I think its not needed)

[bisam]

I used the font in GIMP and set it to bold, yes. I think there is only dogesans-regular.

without the bold setting it looks really different.

[gsantner]

This is an memetastic created image:
Using black as text and border size.
So, give me your 2 favourites. all of my images posted in here are created from within app.

[bisam]

If you want 2 its Doge Sans or Comic Relief. Though Comic Reliefs characters are bit too straight.

Thank you for all your work btw ;)

This came from www.memegenerator.net (I just left the captions blank).

It's a while since some additions and not the latest are added, maybe there are some more fresh, dank super templates add-able.

some research notes:

• Fonts: 1001fonts | Font Squirell | fontspace | Google Fonts | FontMeme | Identify font

The other day I wanted to shitpost my friends with a "what did it cost" thanos-meme, but it wasn't available.
Can you include it so nobody has to miss such an opportunity again? Direct link to image: https://i.redd.it/se21bl871g611.jpg
