I guess I could do something like this:

@daeus I like what you’ve done above, but I personally prefer the first graphic, in the darker shade, but Kate’s right that there needs to be a divider of sorts between graphic and text.

@Daeus hm… better-ish? I like the first re-do, but it isn’t perfect. What program are you using to put these together? Because putting in white boxes is like… as basic as the abcs…
You know what, maybe you could just put two straight and fairly defined black lines down the sides of the one you fixed, about half an inch from the edge.
@daeus – I love what you’re doing with the graphics and quotes…personally, that’s what I search and pin on Pinterest for the most part: quotes. 🙂
Personally, I do think some type of border might help. 🙂 Or bringing in the text a little bit, by letting the background be the border.
Also, I get to create a lot of graphics every week for my small business, so if you’d like the names of a couple of the programs/apps I use, just let me know. What I’ve found is pleasing to the eye is crisp and clean. Having a very plain background with text…but making the text centered or in the middle of the graphic. Or having a textured background, but again, making the text a bit smaller so that the background forms a border…does that make any sense?
Again, that’s just my opinion and things I’ve seen around as I watch social media. 🙂 😀
@lifeofkatie Do you have an example of what you’re talking about. I can’t quite imagine it.
And, sure, I’d be interested to know what programs you use.
@kate-flournoy I’m not exactly sure what you mean. :/I’m using Canva.
I did experiment with a border like you were talking about. Here are three designs. None of them are amazing, but I think maybe the one with the black border could be turned into something.

Daeus here— I just took one of your templates and put rough lines where I was talking about. If you shrink the text inside those lines, it makes it very neat and tidy and leaves clean, empty edges to frame the quote and make it look complete.
@kate-flournoy Ah, okay. Here are two more examples then.
Don’t ask me why the lines on #1 are short. I designed them a little longer.

@daeus what does Lorem ipsum doloris sit amet mean!??! I see that everywhere!

@daeus Ahhhh….that makes so much sense now. Thank you! And great template things!

https://forums.theaetherli@Daeus yes! Much better; either of those would work very nicely.
Nice turtles. 😀
@kate-flournoy I felt it expressed my personality nicely.
