Patrick,

Could you add, below the comment box, a quick summary of the html tags and other formatting tags that you accept?

Could you use a more subtle watermark on memes? The big white banner on the bottom is a bit much.

Thanks, I agree it's jarring if the meme background is dark.

I'm not great with graphics, but would like to make the banner the same general color as the meme to not stand out as much. I don't know how to do this yet.

OK, did that. How can I make it prettier or more useful?

Thanks. I like it.

For visuals I might surround each tag with the angle brackets or separate the with commas.

Allowed html tags: <a> <b>
Allowed html tags: a, b, blockquote

Also add them to the edit comment page.

Use the title tag to show the user a short explanation when holding the mouse over it.

<span title="bold">b</span>

Clicking on the tag inserts it together with the closing tag, if necessary. If text is selected, then the tags are put around the text.

Bonus if you can somehow, for each tag, link a page that give a full description of the element. I wouldn't know how to do that without cluttering the page.

OK, now I'll just print the "selected by patrick.net/memes" on the bottom of the image itself instead of adding a white banner. This text will sometimes get blurred by the image itself, but sometimes will work fine, eg:
