Pretty good start ^__^

If you're using Paint, to make boxes, just use the shape making tool.

Select, say, the thing that looks like a box. Then pick the specific one that is filled in (Either with a border or without).

Pick your border color with Left Click and your Interior Color with Right Click.

Then click and drag to make a nice box (or circle or whatever) easily.

I know nothing about Paint, but I know captions. Once you get use to it, you will be fine. This first one was a nice little one for your first. Good job.

Hey, that ain't bad. Work on your grammar and you'll have it made.

I usually use Paint too, 'cause I can't pay for Photoshop and I'm ignorant in the ways of Gimp myself, so sorry, can't help, or else I would. That's a good start, though, and with the cookie thing, you could have your own style or series. Keep it up.

Good Work, just a little grammar check needed.

I too use Paint, and though I'm trying to learn GIMP I still am not to the point where I can use it for captions so don't stress about which program you use.

Yellow doesn't show up well over the picher. Still a good caption. I sujest add the border to the side. Also if your vertion of MS paint has it, save it as a PNG. In some vertions you can even add ".PNG" to the end and it'll save it correctly. (In others it doesn't and save it gif. O___o )

Good caption but the text doesn't really show up. You can adjust the size of it and it'll add a white blank section to the side or bottom where you can add text. To increase my font size in mine I actually look screenshots of Wordpad and pasted it in.

I as well would add a back section then put the text on that. But if you did not want a back section, then I Suggest just changeing the text color. Yellow is a bit hard to read on this pic.

As for the caption itself, it was nice. I liked how you had him / her fighting with pronouns. =^-^=

Make the text a different color, first off. It's hard to read.
Next, there are less grammar errors, good work.

Other than that, it's a great cap. Keep it up.

Oooh, ominous. I like it. *Applauds* Grammar's improving, that's good. Very interesting captions so far. Better than me, for sure.

That was a nice Naruto one. Only thing this time is just make it bigger. Other then that, it is a great caption. Good job.
