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.

Hang on, I'll just Photoshop the orca right back out of the picture and Mr. Penguin will be fine.

[–]iamagainstit 15 points16 points ago

Or just free Orca rides?

EDIT: Or revenge.

now just replace the falling penguin and put the whale back, then the set is complete

[–]slcStephen 27 points28 points ago

I couldn't help but make constructive use of my time at work and go for a semi-realistic version (not that I don't like yours as well!)

[–]ffn 5 points6 points ago

Your version is nice, but I think happywaffle's just has more soul to it.

[–]slcStephen 12 points13 points ago

I agree, it has character. Mine only reflects the soulless drive for perfection that I have come to embody as a corporate designer.

Haha, Photoshop? I'd say Paint!

[–]Kaiburr 2 points3 points ago

Now that I think about it, it strikes me oddly that a killer whale would be in Antarctica. I know penguins can reside elsewhere but that's where it looks like.

Edit: I guess killer whales should be called ubiquitous whales.

[–]Vivalayeo 4 points5 points ago

Killer whales go virtually everywhere, including Antarctica

[–]Ifriendzonecats 11 points12 points ago

Guess that's one more thing for me to check for under the bed.

[–]beckzilla 2 points3 points ago

now there is one on the moon even

[–]NNYPhillipJFry 1 point2 points ago

Killer whales are found in all oceans, from the frigid Arctic and Antarctic >regions to tropical seas.

Thats from the wiki on Orcas. But I learned most of my knowledge of whales from Futurama episodes.

[–]happywaffle 1 point2 points ago

My way was funner.

Thank you. I am much less sad now.

Is the photoshopage really not obvious?

oh shit, so I'm that guy?

[–]willthewinner 106 points107 points ago

We've all been that guy. Shake it off champ. I'd never seen it before so upvotes from me.

[–]bricardo 16 points17 points ago

I'm not that guy. I verified my two original submissions to make sure they were unique. I now have 7 upvotes, and will never reach frontpage.

[–]pungkow 1 point2 points ago

I know that feel bro.

[–]phillythebeaut[S] 28 points29 points ago

much appreciated. i thought it was original, but SimilarImage crushed my hopes and dreams. not sure how to prevent that next time. guess ill message that guy before posting anything from now on.

[–]Capt_Ido_Nos 21 points22 points ago

Always check KarmaDecay, that's saved my hide more than once!

[–]phillythebeaut[S] 6 points7 points ago

how do i find it if the picture was emailed to me? sorry, I've never used KarmaDecay, and ignorant on how to use it.

[–]Capt_Ido_Nos 4 points5 points ago

It's pretty simple, really! Just go here, either link or upload the image, and hit search. It digs back and sees how many times that image has been posted, as well as a lot of other relevant info about it.

Glad to help!

[–]phillythebeaut[S] 1 point2 points ago

even if I save the image from an email with a unique name?

[–]bfogarty27 4 points5 points ago

the name doesn't matter it's searching the image

[–]phillythebeaut[S] 9 points10 points ago

but, but, but, how?

[–]Capt_Ido_Nos 2 points3 points ago

Yup, it should! I tested it out just now with a reposted image on the front of /r/pics today. I saved it to my desktop, renamed it to something random, and KarmaDecay was still able to find duplicate posts.

I actually hadn't thought of that before, but I am glad the test checked out there, haha.

[–]phillythebeaut[S] 0 points1 point ago

wow. that's all i can say.

[–]SP4CEM4NSP1FF 2 points3 points ago

Just a reminder, downvoting him for asking this question is counterproductive. We don't get to bitch about reposts and then downvote people for asking how to avoid them.

[–]irondieselvingiant 1 point2 points ago

Logic? Not on my reddit

[–]Cayou -1 points0 points ago

What about all the people who hadn't seen the picture the first time it was submitted? Fuck them, right?

[–]Capt_Ido_Nos 3 points4 points ago

Honestly, if it's been like a year, people are going to remember that it's been posted before, but most sane people won't care. I am mostly concerned about stuff I see on a weekly, or sometimes monthly basis. There's limits on both ends of the reposting issue: stuff shouldn't be posted over and over again constantly, and it shouldn't be locked away in a vault for eternity, either. KarmaDecay is simply a tool to help everyone find that happy medium.

[–]Cayou 0 points1 point ago

If it actually is reposted to the point of saturation, its upvote/downvote ratio will go to shit. I have yet to see something make it to the main page of /r/all several times in a few months, at most you'll see something on one subreddit, and then on a different subreddit a few days/weeks later. Basically, if it's on the "front page", it's because people upvoted it. If people upvoted it, it's because they like it (either it was new to them, or they enjoyed seeing it again). Complaining about something being a repost is never constructive.

[–]Capt_Ido_Nos -1 points0 points ago

Correct, which is why I linked to KarmaDecay instead of complain. Ounce of prevention, as they say :)

[–]Cayou 0 points1 point ago

Linking to KarmaDecay is not constructive either, unless you're doing it so that people can read more comments on a certain subject. But by calling it "prevention" you seem to be implying that submitters should take care not to submit content that's been submitted in the past, and I totally disagree with that.

[–]Awesomebox5000 0 points1 point ago

Reposts happen. If you come across something and want to share it, don't let the haters tell you you're wrong. I and many others had never seen this image before.

[–]willthewinner 0 points1 point ago

lol dude at least you get the top one on here!!

[–]CaptInsane -1 points0 points ago

Who gives a shit? You got more karma than the other posters

[–]MetalFlameV -1 points0 points ago

Maybe you should only post stuff that you made?

[–]phillythebeaut[S] 1 point2 points ago

ya, got it. but if everyone did that half of reddit would be boring

[–]MetalFlameV -1 points0 points ago

Most of reddit is boring because you see the same things several times.

[–]pungkow 0 points1 point ago

I've never been that guy.

[–]Owntano 0 points1 point ago

I guess I'm a nooby. What does this post even mean? edit nvm i guess it just lists multiple posts of the same shit -___-

[–]Crimsonial 2 points3 points ago

Fuck it man, last repost was 2 months ago and I've never seen this before in all my time on Reddit. I got a good laugh.

[–]Snapple32 0 points1 point ago

I posted this 10 months ago and got nothing, you lucky son of a bitch

[–]phillythebeaut[S] 2 points3 points ago

sorry man. I just tried to upvote it for you, but said i can no longer vote bc it has been archived. i went ahead and upvoted everything else that it would let me though.

[–]Snapple32 -1 points0 points ago

why thank you very much I shall return the favor

[–]Twatamatic 0 points1 point ago

I think your title was the best if it's any consolation.

[–]squeakyL 0 points1 point ago

think of it this way - the next time someone reposts this, the chart will say

last one in is a rot...oh shit

Oh shit...

Well shit....

NNNNOOOOO........

[–]Stickguy259 0 points1 point ago

If you didn't make it, it's probably a repost. That's my rule at least.

Edit: BUUUUT, I'd never seen it, and I don't really mind reposts, so I approve.

[–]GraniteGrump -2 points-1 points ago

I hate SimilarImage. My least favorite Repost. "In case you had thought of enjoying this for a moment, just reminding you that you aren't the first one.." Thanks, Buzz Killington.

Reasonably certain I've seen this picture before minus the orca.

[–]catalyst24 0 points1 point ago

Sonofabitch. I posted this last week and only got a few upvotes.

[–]Alvleeskliersap 1 point2 points ago

that's a photoshopped picture of Corky the orca, who lives in Seaworld San Diego. She has no teeth anymore.

[–]LibraryDrone 1 point2 points ago

"My name is Tux, and this is Jackass."

[–]AlienJunkie 1 point2 points ago

Fact: The process of penguins pooling next to the edge waiting to dive in is part of a process for this exact scenario. While it's beneficial to be among the first in the water to hunt since fish will be more likely in their schools and therefore easier to catch, it is not beneficial to be the first in. Penguins actually pool together along the edge and eventually push the first one in. Once they see the first few penguins fall in without blood rising to the top of the water or stirring waves from the orca, they are then only willing to dive in to hunt.

[–]SOPA_NO 0 points1 point ago

Basically, penguins are that douche in high school that pushed you in the pool.

[–]hobojanedoe 1 point2 points ago

[–]greattsauce 1 point2 points ago

I IMMEDIATELY regret this decision

[–]AmanitaMuscaria 1 point2 points ago

That poor fellow was more than likely pushed by another penguin to test the waters. Pretty much the opposite spectrum of altruism.

[–]Ianras 1 point2 points ago

[–]dophie23 1 point2 points ago

That makes my heart hurt :(

[–]vxx 10 points11 points ago

It would hurt your heart too if you see a whale suffer from hunger.

That's nature.

[–]dophie23 0 points1 point ago

True true. I tend to feel less for apexpredators though. Which is strang because typically their population is the lowest. I feel empathy for every dieing creature.

[–]NotBatman374 3 points4 points ago

we humans have kind of screwed up that survival of the fittest thing.

apex predators: big claws, big teeth, excellent senses and higher brain functions. Lowest populations.

Cows: Big fat stupid and delicious. Billions of them worldwide.

[–]410LaxMD 0 points1 point ago

Probably the best photo used for photoshopping over in /r/hockey last season.

[–]Amizats 0 points1 point ago

Even though this is photoshopped, penguins actually push each other off ice shelves for this exact reason. Better one than all of them. Penguins are for the greater good I suppose.

I know this is shopped and all.. But don't penguins actually like shove one in to test the water and make sure it's safe? I'm pretty sure they all huddle around the edge and shove one in

[–]SOPA_NO 0 points1 point ago

That looks mysteriously fake to me, I don't know why.
