Looking for an image subreddit with minimal rules? Check out /r/images

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:
[text here](/spoiler)

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

"We now know Barack Obama is actually poisonous, spitting its venom at his prey, causing blindness and eventually paralysis. This makes President Obama a beautiful but deadly addition to the White House."

[–]XeoMage 5 points6 points ago

I don't know why you've got downvotes, that's hilarious.

[–]staknhalo 1 point2 points ago

Barack Obama doesn't want to be fed; he wants to hunt!

[–]EmeliusBrown 0 points1 point ago

He's gonna eat the goat?

[–]Gorignak 22 points23 points ago

I'm happy for the little girl (also sad for her), but as a non-American, this situation is astonishing. I honestly can't imagine someone using their make-a-wish to meet David Cameron or any of our politicians, or someone literally crying with happiness while meeting them.

[–]Samuel_Gompers 15 points16 points ago

Nobody wants to meet the head of government. Head of state is a different story...

[–]Gorignak 9 points10 points ago

That's a good point. People here do get excited to see the Queen.

[–]Clay_Statue 4 points5 points ago

I would totally pass out and crap my pants if I met either the Queen or Obama. Celebrities aren't impressive, I'm awed by historical figures. Both Queen EII and Obama will be studied by people a thousand years from now. THAT is impressive.

[–]Aitioma -1 points0 points ago

Really?

I have seen videos of crazy Britons literally fainting when meeting the Queen or some other bullshit.

[–]AlanLolspan 9 points10 points ago

I love the portrait of Lincoln, as if he's watching over the proceedings.

[–]kmk1018 4 points5 points ago

Look at that smug-ass Lincoln up there. That motherfucker is all calm and shit.

[–]Cassiebu19 15 points16 points ago

That hit me in the feel goods

[–]dyn4mo 14 points15 points ago

She's HUGE for an 8 yr old.

[–]Kaizer_Soze 3 points4 points ago

Ahh yes, the old reddit switch-a-roo .

[–]americanolive 0 points1 point ago

I just keep clicking! and clicking! and clicking! and clicking!

[–]Kaizer_Soze 2 points3 points ago

There's no earthly way of knowing Which direction we are going. There's no knowing where we're rowing Or which way the river's flowing. Is it raining? Is it snowing? Is a hurricane a blowing?

Not a speck of light is showing so the danger must be growing. Are the fires of hell a glowing? Is the grisly reaper mowing? Yes! The danger must be growing For the rowers keep on rowing. And they're certainly not showing any signs that they are slowing!

[–]redlikerubies 1 point2 points ago

She'd come up to your elbow, that's a normal sized 8 year old.

[–]immaturewalrus 10 points11 points ago

He was talking about the woman holding Obama's hand. It was a joke. A lot of people didn't get it. I did. Don't worry dyn4mo......... I got it.....

[–]dyn4mo 2 points3 points ago

You...you get me...

[–]saroj7878 3 points4 points ago

[–]redlikerubies -1 points0 points ago

Ah, well then. Maybe he hadn't seen an 8 year old in awhile. I wasn't indignant, just feeling educational.

[–]LOUD-DUCK -1 points0 points ago

whooooooooosh

[–]LG193 1 point2 points ago

:'-)

[–]nomlah 0 points1 point ago

not loading for me, has it been brought down by views or is it my horrible machine?

[–]WonkRobot 0 points1 point ago

Mommmmm!! You're embarrassing me!!

[–]carebearteam 1 point2 points ago

How do I get myself a blazer with hot pink elbow patches?

[–]Casting_Aspersions 1 point2 points ago

BAM! (blazer sold separately)

[–]codesign 0 points1 point ago

Does anyone know what the girls condition is or if there is anything anyone could do to help her?

[–]Vapotherm 0 points1 point ago

This picture is one for the history books.

[–]ROFLMAOBBQ 0 points1 point ago

Three candles in the background? Halflife 3 confirmed.

[–]mnorris6 0 points1 point ago

My buddy is a marine and was injured overseas and I got lucky and visited him on the day that he received his purple heart from Obama himself. I personally am not an Obama supporter, but when you see him in a close setting like that it is almost impossible to not like him. Such a nice guy.

[–]leon_everest 0 points1 point ago

the dad in the photo is like "Shieeet"

[–]Arknell -3 points-2 points ago

Bill Murray-Lincoln approves.
