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.

That's what pool circulation and filtration systems are for.

If you think an elephant snorting some water out of your pool is nasty, wait till you see your niece shit in the pool.

It spreads out in a cloud.

I read the story about this photo about a year ago. Apparently the people who run that resort/hotel/whatever had no idea why their jacuzzi kept losing water. They took it apart a couple times looking for leaks until one day someone finally noticed an elephant was coming and drinking out of it.

[–]rhamphorhynchus 2 points3 points ago

Well, if the elephant kept coming back, that suggests it wasn't chlorinated. I am less concerned now.

It looks like it has two to me, just one of them kind of looks like it's not there because of the angle and lighting.

Search for duplicates before posting. That said, sometimes bad timing, a bad title, or just plain bad luck can cause an interesting story to fail to get noticed. Feel free to post something again if you feel that the earlier posting didn't get the attention it deserved and you think you can do better.

Please don't:

Complain about a story being old. Reddit is about interesting stuff, not new stuff only. Just hide the story.

Complain when a duplicate story finds more success than the original. Posting a link to the original is okay, since earlier comments may be of interest.
