YTMND is a website community that centers around the creation of pages featuring a juxtaposition of a single image, optionally animated or tiled, along with large zooming text and a looping sound file. The site reached its peak popularity in mid to late 2000s. It has been close to shutting down several times but it is still active and working.

Fannish Use

YTMND spawned hundreds of memes, many of which are fannish in nature. One of the most famous YTMND memes is the "Snape Kills Dumbledore" one. When the sixth Harry Potter book went on sale, a video of a man shouting the final twist to a queue of people that were waiting to buy the book went viral. These ytmnd's can be made with clips from that video, or they can be made with scenes from the movies.
