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.

Upside Down World Map

This map is arguing that North is up, since it claims that south facing up makes a map upside down.

This is really a northside south map... and a repost ಠ_ಠ

So you wouldn't mind if I 'Up' vote you then.

Makes me want to get toasted and stare at it all night.

This was in an episode of The West Wing once. It was referring to how people in the north feel superior culturally and financially to those in the south. This was the solution to the problem.

I see you've found yourself an Australian world map. Good show.

Accurate in what way? Every projection sacrifices accuracy one way or another. It's impossible to unwrap the surface of a sphere onto a flat plane without distortion.

[–]Twad 0 points1 point ago

You should wrap it around two smaller spheres instead.

Each country's size is correctly represented relative to others, whereas the northern hemisphere is typically shown to be much larger than it actually is.

Everything's so skinny, and auf Deutsch.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but their isn't a magnetic south is there?

[–]drakeypoo 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

All magnets have two poles. So yes.

This is so refreshing in some way.

It is strange how I hadn't realized just how much more landmass is in the northern hemisphere until I viewed this.

[–]Stumbos4 0 points1 point ago

This is actually what the earth will look like in about two million years.

Aannnd this is (very partially) why America and Europe are super powers. Hook'em while they're young!

Does anybody else think Canada looks like South America, and it's in the right position?

I tried using an upside-down map like this on a highschool assignment once. I tried explaining to the teacher that "up is just a perspective" and whatnot, but the bitch failed me anyway.

And that day, I learned that sucking the teacher's cock is more important than being creative.

'Up' is also a movie.

why does this make people go "whoa"?

I am not trying to be all hipster about it, but seriously I just look at it and go "yep" and close the tab whenever this comes up.

I've always wondered if our maps would have looked like this had advanced culture developed in the southern hemisphere first.

My favorite international relations professor (Robert Denemark) had a world map hung upside-down in his office. It was one of the most inspiring things I remember about college.
