How to make a wanted poster

  1. Name the suspect

    Type the suspect's name and the charge. Short, punchy crimes like ‘Grand Theft Sardine’ read best from across the room.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

Ideas for your wanted poster

  • A birthday poster with the guest of honour as the outlaw
  • Office jokes about the person who keeps taking the last coffee
  • Western-themed party invitations and decorations
  • Anniversary cards for someone who stole your heart
  • Classroom reading rewards and book-character projects
  • Lost pet posters with a sense of humour

Tips for a better result

  • Front-facing photos with a plain background look the most like real mugshots.
  • Sepia photo look on Sun-baked sepia paper gives the most convincing antique finish.
  • 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.
