A motivator is a picture with a subtitle designed to genuinely motivate the person reading it. Image and text are set against a black background. It has become a [[meme]] to instead use snarky subtitles under images that are obviously not meant to be motivating. These are called "demotivators", and are mostly associated with 00s web culture.
