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.

  6. No animated images. Please submit them to /r/gif, /r/gifs, or /r/reactiongifs instead.

  • 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.

A great idea at Christmas time. You could make them red and green and line them up along your sidewalk to the door. Definatly going to do this next winter.

[–]stoopidquestions 0 points1 point ago

How long until someone throws one?

[–]dorene 0 points1 point ago

What an awesome idea! :D I'm so doing this to cheer up my sick mom when I see her! :)

Perfect for whiskey if you don't put the food colouring in and let it freeze slow

[–]DixieDrew 0 points1 point ago

You can't get whiskey cold enough with snow to freeze it.

[–]IUsedToBeAPygmy 5 points6 points ago

The idea is not to freeze the whiskey, the idea is to freeze water into an ice ball. The reduced surface area makes them melt slower, less diluting the whiskey.

Even better than that, Whiskey Stones.

Hence "on the rocks."

[–]DixieDrew 0 points1 point ago

Ooh, nice!

[–]Ladranix 0 points1 point ago

Indeed, nothing worse than having to gulp a glass of whiskey for fear of it being watered down.

[–]Omnamah 0 points1 point ago

Wish I knew about this when it wasn't summer, :'(.
