You could find more information here: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Vanitygen
Basically you could use your CPU and GPU into generating one of these nice addresses. The stronger your hardware is the faster it could generate the intended address. Also there are some users here that do these for some money.

Alright mate, thanks for the information. I have a high end Graphic card which will help me make some sexy addresses. Will give it a try.

Thanks alot.

Heya folks!

I am really much interested in creating my own vanity address. What is the requirement of making one? Do we need a special hardware to make one?

A guide would be very helpful. Thank you!

you can use vanitygen, an open source tool that can be found on github.
oclvanitygen uses your gpu and is faster (same github page, included in the binary downloads)

https://github.com/samr7/vanitygen

To know the command line arguments, just run vanitygen.exe from the console, and the full optionlist will be shown Wink

Thanks alot, i will look into it soon. Didnt knew we got software to make it.
