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.

Beautiful picture. Too bad the brain isn't divided into roles like this.

[–]IncandescentMustache 9 points10 points ago

I'm glad at least one person feels the same way as I do

[–]carlsaischa 16 points17 points ago

Scientific fact has very little to do with feelings.

[–]IncandescentMustache 4 points5 points ago

I should've worded that differently...

[–]IncandescentMustache 17 points18 points ago*

This diagram is kind of misleading to say the least, here is a blog entry from my man Steven Novella (a clinical neurologist) demonstrating how unscientific this notion is.

[–]Fishare 1 point2 points ago

Good link.

beautiful images.

[–]DishwasherTwig 1 point2 points ago

I like the third one the best. At it at least doesn't make the left brain out to be boring and bland.

[–]humanmichael 1 point2 points ago

i concur. why should logic and reasoning be depicted as boring and less exciting. the left brain has led to the most awe-inspiring discoveries in history - medicine, astronomy, evolution, etc...

[–]DishwasherTwig 0 points1 point ago

Exactly my thoughts. Art is one thing, but it's the intellect that lead to discoveries and inventions far more beautiful, in my opinion. For instance, I absolutely love cable-stayed bridges. They are consistently some of the most beautiful architecture I have ever seen. Clearly there is an aspect of the right brain in each one of them, but the underlying forces and math necessary to even create such a structure is entirely left-brained.

[–]snoutysnout 0 points1 point ago

thank you! very well made adds! beautiful artistry!

[–]DnDChops -2 points-1 points ago

awwww, that just made it a little less amazing somehow. still, upvote and my new wallpaper

[–]humanmichael 1 point2 points ago

sorry. just trying to give credit where credit is due

[–]DnDChops 0 points1 point ago

fair enough

[–]WhatIsThisWhereAmI 1 point2 points ago

Always preferred this version myself.

[–]timidnoshing 1 point2 points ago

The left side is equally psychedelic.

[–]lejugg 0 points1 point ago

so my left brain knows java? hmm

[–]oldrinb 0 points1 point ago

Very clearly ActionScript, not Java.

I'd just love a version of this without the writing.

[–]TyDiL 0 points1 point ago

TIL half of my brain needs to stop drawing and get back to his math homework.

[–]adamwho 0 points1 point ago

Even if this were accurate, it isn't fair to claim that programming isn't a creative endeavor

[–]Disasstah -1 points0 points ago

Left side could use a bit of love.
