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.

  6. No animated images. Please submit them to /r/gif, /r/gifs, or /r/reactiongifs instead.

  • 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.

For more lovely Elvgren pin-ups and the women they're based on (cue shocking self promotion): http://www.reddit.com/r/reddit.com/comments/gm38v/pinups_vs_real_women_retro_photoshop/

I've always liked Elgren's pin-up work. He really seems to capture the beauty of the models in a complimentary way while keeping it fun and sexy.

On a side note, the name of this jpg is "elvgren-skeet.jpg." Que Beavis and Butthead laugh.

If she's the third party candidate, I'm voting for her!

How, exactly, did this ruin anything for anybody?

I learned that pin-up paintings were like the Photoshop of the WWII era - I expected the models to be substantially more beautiful than they were.

She's got the colors backwards. Red upvotes on top, blue downvotes on bottom.

if (title.contains("upvote")) { downvote(); }

And here is the one for downvote. I figured I'd save someone the inevitable rebuttal post.
