How to make a wanted poster
Name the suspect
Type the suspect's name and the charge. Short, punchy crimes like ‘Grand Theft Sardine’ read best from across the room.
Add a face
Upload a photo of the outlaw — it is processed in your browser and never uploaded. No photo? Pick a cat silhouette instead.
Set the bounty
Drag the reward slider, pick a bounty clause like Dead or Alive, and say where the suspect was last seen and who issued the poster.
Age it and download
Choose the paper, ink and typeface, add the sheriff stamp, bullet holes or torn corners, then download PNG or JPG or share a link.

Tips for a better result

- Keep the charge to one line — the reward and the face should do the shouting.
FAQ
Wanted Poster questions
Is the wanted poster maker free?
Yes. You can make as many wanted posters as you like and download them as PNG or JPG for free, with no sign-up and no watermark.
Can I put my own photo on the wanted poster?
Yes. Upload any photo and it fills the mugshot frame, with a sepia, black-and-white or colour look. The photo is handled in your browser and is never sent to our servers.
How do I make the poster look old?
Choose Parchment or Sun-baked sepia paper, Soot black or Saddle brown ink and the Western slab typeface, then turn on torn corners and bullet holes.
Can I change the reward amount and wording?
Yes. The reward slider goes from $50 to $100,000, and you can pick a bounty clause, the headline word, where the suspect was last seen and who issued the poster.
Can I print the wanted poster?
Yes. The download is three times screen resolution, which prints cleanly up to about A5. Share links keep your words and styles but never include your photo.
