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.

At least these days they will know that cookies are a sometimes food. We wouldn't want those friends of his to get too fat!

My daughter is in 2nd grade. She told me the other day that they call cookie monster "veggie monster" now and Oscar the Grouch lives in a recycle bin. She said it was dumb. I was so proud.

My daughter looked at a placemat on the table of Sesame Street characters and said it to me Monday night.

EDIT: I googled it and found according to Snopes that it is false. What the fuck? My daughter said it to me. Maybe she heard it from another kid or something..

Which one?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It is a version of the Nighthawks by Edward Hopper with the "Come at me bro" anteater throwing lawn chairs at the window. There's a noticeable crack in the window and all the people are looking at the anteater like, WTF?

Does anyone know where I can buy a print?

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

came in here to find this out, someone, anyone know where the original is from, and whether they sell prints?

e: artist's name is Paco Pomet, from what I can tell, there are no prints (nor an original) for sale anywhere.

PLEASE let me know if you find a better answer.

I looked around very quickly but it was an oil painting, it's not available for sale, and I haven't seen prints anywhere. :(

[–]timeaftertimeafter 0 points1 point ago

Nobody has upvoted my past comment unfortunately...

It's an original painting from famous street artist, Banksy. It probably sold for thousands...

After 57 comments, nobody has pointed out the source and that this is a painting done by the artist Banksy...

[–]rufufu 0 points1 point ago

I have the original painting. Maybe I could do a good picture and send it to you, in order to make a print....
