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.

You know it's not a real pic, right?

[–]cloacamassima 16 points17 points ago

the clear sky above the UK and Ireland was the real give away

[–]YoungAndWise 1 point2 points ago

[–]AnalogDan 1 point2 points ago

The clear sky over a large percentage of the world was also a give away.

How many fucking times is this stupid piece of shit going to get reposted?

EDIT: Motherfucker. His username is "repost". That's his schtick. But you know what, I'm not mad. Not at him anyway. He can post all he wants. I'm mad at the people upvoting this garbage.

What the fuck are those people doing in the middle of the Sahara? And where do they get electricity from to power enough lights in enough of a concentration to be seen from space?

[–]dlynch066 0 points1 point ago

It isn't really that amazing considering this would happen on any planet that has a sun.

[–]tineyeit 1 point2 points ago

It would happen on any planet with a close enough star and a society capable of creating electricity to be visible at night.
