Image makers :

  • Says-It.com image makers "allow you to create your own funny photos and graphics - simply type in some text and choose from a few simple options.
    You can create your own church sign, make an official seal, have your own fire or police badge, and more.
    Once you've picked your options and created your image, you can use it for whatever you like - save it on your computer, upload it to ImageShack image hosting for use in blog or forum posting, or have it applied to a variety of high-quality merchandise from Zazzle.com, including stickers, mugs, keychains, and magnets."
