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), weight loss photos, posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. Weight loss photos go in /r/loseit, 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 astronaut is not just hanging out. He's alone and hammered down 3 and half glasses of scotch and 2 cigarettes. But why? He's an astronaut. He was able to go to outer space, right? What's he got to be sad about?

This piece is one of my all time favorites, beautifully crafted! It's a magnificent representation on how the life of people with jobs even considered "out of this world" are still tied down to moral and legal restrictions and even to things and sinful as the alphabet. Not even the happiest, most successful people in life can escape the tedious grasp that is our planet Earth. Marvelous! 10/10!!

When I was in kindergarten, I got my first exposure to computers when my class went to the "computer lab" (this was 1993 so the computer lab was a small closet-sized room with a small number of very old computers in it) to play a side-scroller game for children that took place on the moon. In showing us the controls, the teacher mentioned the "space bar." The game being set in space, and since I'd never used a word processor and seen that its function was to make spaces between words, I naturally assumed that the space bar was named for this game and its setting. In space.

I don't recall any one moment of realizing my error, but I do distinctly recall having the same thought in subsequent years when (after moving and changing schools) my class went to the computer lab and began using computers as word processors. I now think that I've blocked the moment when I realized I had been mistaken out, as it was presumably such a bittersweet loss of innocence type moment.

Every now and then I still think of the space bar as something that sends me into space.
