Hi All! I am George Pierce, this post is about an easy way to create attention-grabbing images for free. Images such as you see above will help you with just about any online endeavor. You can use them for posts, web pages, thumbnails, and T-shirts (the above is a T-shirt design) and to generate free traffic. You can share them on social media sites, for which they are perfect, with a link back to your site, your video, your online store, your blog, and so on.
There is a simple process that I use, you are welcome to give it a try.
Step #1. Finding an image
It is all about grabbing attention, so you want images that are unique or different.
Shh! Secret ~ The image above is from what I believe is a lesser-known site, The Old Design Shop. https://olddesignshop.com/
There are many sites that you can use for images. My favorites are Pixabay and Pexels. You can use their images for free and no attribution is needed.
Step #2. Adding Text
Let Google help.
Search for a short joke or a quote, keeping in mind that you want it to be relative, but more importantly to also help grab attention. Google will help you find what you are looking for as well as give you additional ideas. Often, you will want to modify or shorten what you find, but you will be surprised at how many great options will show up.
FYI, you have the option to create more than one image. You can use them for testing and tweaking as well as for multiple social media posts spaced over several days.
Step# 3. Adding Your Text To Your Image.
Canva is a free site that you can use to help with almost any kind of image that you might need. Go to Canva, above is a T-shirt template, start with a blank page of the kind of image you want, upload your image, then click on Text on the left column. Find text that you like, add it to your image, customize, name your image, click on Share at the top right, and choose download.
Share on social media.
This is a way of separating yourself from the crowd with little extra effort and lots of extra benefits.
Thank you for reading.
Much success,
George Pierce

I got my stolen bike back!
My bicycle was stolen about a week ago. Fortunately, I spotted an ad, yesterday, on Craigslist. The ad certainly seemed to describe my stolen bike, so I contacted the seller, and met him at the park. As soon as I saw the bike, I knew it was my bike. After a few minutes, I asked to take it for a ride.
The seller said, “Just don't ride off with my bike.” Ride off is exactly what I did. Yesterday, I stole my bike back.
