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.

[–]randomsnark 2 points3 points ago

I had the same reaction, and upvoted you, but then it occurred to me that he's just following through on the "has to one-up everyone else" theme with an imagined quote.

He is apparently the strongest of them all. That or he really hates his kid and won't catch it.

Hey, he figures he can catch the kid 9 out of 10 times.

It is, you can see the color fill below the baby from where he was originally.

The error level analysis makes it look like its been heavily shopped, even around areas that don't seem so odd. I think someone was touching up the photo and couldn't resist moving a child up a bit.

[–]hackersword 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

From the link you provided

It is worth noting that edges and areas red in colour are often depicted as brighter in the ELA tests. This due to the way the photos are saved by various programs. It is not proof that image was manipulated.

Notice the kid is wearing Red. Also the kid on the far right, who is only a foot or so in the air, is also wearing red and he shows comparable level. The other two kids are wearing white.

[–]MarlonBain 44 points45 points ago

Maybe there's some kind of shop where you can buy the ability to throw your baby so high for a photo.

Hahah! Very similarly, my friend has a picture of his dad throwing either him or his brother up in the air as a baby, just like that. The first time people see it, they ask: Oh, is that you or your brother?

Friend: Oh, that's [Dad's name] Junior.

Person: ...?

Friend: (shakes head) He never came down.

I used to toss my son really high. I don't know if I ever got him that high, but he got up quite a ways. Freaked the crap out of my mom, not to mention random passers-by.

Now my son is too big -- or I'm too much of a weakling -- to toss him like that. :-(

Oh well, we have memories and some fun photos.

You see, it's funny because the dads have tossed their babies into the air, but in the photo it looks like they are levitating or flying.

i like to think this is the dads talking cuz they were astronauts but babies started falling from the sky so they have to go catch all of them _^ I registered just so I could let u guys know my thoughts n why this is funny

First I laughed. Then I realized that a group of fathers (I'm assuming here) throwing their babies in the air looks a lot worse than just one.

(I'm hoping that the high flyer is photoshopped.)

If you toss your kid up 2 inches above your hands, it's fun. 3 inches, 12 inches, 36 inches. Where do you draw the line? Everyone has a different level of capability when it comes to catching children out of mid-air.

[–]wasadigger 0 points1 point ago

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

No you're not but it does depend on how high. Tossing them up a little isn't going to hurt anything.
