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.

Perfect place for Jurassic Park

[–]anonsequitur 194 points195 points ago

You can only get there with a golden chocobo.

[–]Wufei74 32 points33 points ago

No I'm pretty sure I can land the Highwind there. /3 hours later/

Sigh, lets just kill Ruby.

[–]truksama 16 points17 points ago

Knights of the Round here I come!

[–]scampbe999 11 points12 points ago

I opened this thread just to make an FFVII comment.

[–]adiel94 0 points1 point ago

I really think we got here too late!

[–]kech 0 points1 point ago

1st think i thought of too

[–]MechaChocobo 3 points4 points ago

--Beep--

Aggrivated: Everyone always talks about Golden Chocobo. Sarcasticly: He's so fast. He is the only one that can get to the island.

--Boop--

Subtle disgust: Dude's a prick.

[–]xenobite 0 points1 point ago

black would get you there

[–]dr_w 6 points7 points ago

thank you

[–]zortor 3 points4 points ago

I love you.

[–]petey102 1 point2 points ago

I feel like you could just roll up the island in the middle with a well sized katamari. I'll have to ask my dad. He broke the cosmos and junk

[–]wafflechunk29 1 point2 points ago

I love breaking the cosmos! ...and junk

[–]MustafaMarx 1 point2 points ago

No no no... You first shoot the God Cyclos with an arrow so that he may teach you the Ballad of Gales. It is this song that allows you to warp, using a cyclone, to Aogashima, Island of the Fairy Queen!

[–]Ashikata 0 points1 point ago

came here to post this reply. defeated :(

[–]jzboston8 0 points1 point ago

I know for a fact that the Invincible will get you there as well.

[–]egosumFidius 44 points45 points ago

That's probably what the Fire Nation's capital looked like before its sprawling palace was completed.

[–]YoureTheLastOne 0 points1 point ago

My exact thoughts.

[–]lilgirlygirl94 1 point2 points ago

I was gonna say it kinda looks like the boiling rock without the boild water

[–]sonicoliver 49 points50 points ago

This island is in Tokyo, where I live, and my company makes travel videos. I was thinking about going and doing my own little personal youtube... but if reddit was interested enough and posted on our vimeo page, I'm sure my boss would definitely consider sending our camera crew there and doing a proper tour...

Here's some other videos we've done around the Tokyo, this is the quality you could expect:

https://vimeo.com/32079284

https://vimeo.com/31955620

https://vimeo.com/30786857

We just went to Papua New Guinea and is in the editing stage, but I've had Agoshima on my list for ages... MAKE SOME NOISE, REDDIT!!! SEND US TO AGOSHIMA!!!

edit: Thanks to people who commented on the vids!! hahaha, we'll get to Aogoshima yet!

[–]spoonerj24 4 points5 points ago

I don't that it is possible for this island to be inside Tokyo..

[–]dadadan 22 points23 points ago

It's part of Tokyo Hachijō Subprefecture, is what he means.

[–]sonicoliver 3 points4 points ago

It is actually part of Tokyo! Albeit a very remote and extremely hard to get to part... Check the wiki ;)

[–]icallmyselfmonster 1 point2 points ago

As somebody who has been to Miyakejima I concur.

[–]rasputine 2 points3 points ago

It's part of Tokyo like Rochester is part of New York, if you see what I mean. Tokyo is a city and a region (prefecture), not just a city.

[–]Mani_moto 1 point2 points ago

nice videos

[–]sonicoliver 1 point2 points ago

Thanks! Everyone worked really hard on them.

[–]Irongooglybob 9 points10 points ago

Its Sootopolis!

[–]jinku2608 1 point2 points ago

Gonna catch me some Groudon. Oh wait .... life is one long nuzlocke run !

[–]hefnetefne 18 points19 points ago

Un'Goro

[–]BlatirA 5 points6 points ago

I made that island on "from dust"

[–]matt01ss 1 point2 points ago

Exactly what I thought when I first saw the image. Make sure the mountains are high enough!!

[–]TwEE-N-Toast 0 points1 point ago

Thought the same thing as well. Great game, wish there were more like it.

[–]Deddan 0 points1 point ago

Doshin the Giant on GameCube is very much like it. Pretty hard game to find now, though, I suspect.

Perfect spot for a villain's lair...

[–]TheMintBandit 17 points18 points ago

Tsunami hits: Worlds largest swimming pool

[–]iamzeph 38 points39 points ago

I think swimming pools that big are called "lakes"

[–]TheMintBandit 5 points6 points ago

You know I was gonna say that, but seeing as how I don't know the size of that island, it still might not have earned the title "Worlds largest lake."

[–]DreadedKanuk 2 points3 points ago

The Great Lakes are definitely much, much bigger. That is, judging from the building in the OP's picture.

[–]MTGothmog -1 points0 points ago

the worlds largest lake is Lake Baikal I believe. Its basically a freshwater inland sea

[–]bitchkat 2 points3 points ago

Due to its depth, Lake Baikal has the most water of any lake in the world but it has less surface area than Lake Superior or Lake Victoria.

[–]MTGothmog 0 points1 point ago

so do we call it even or...

[–]moneymark21 1 point2 points ago

Poor lake titicaca never gets any love

[–]5oclockRxn -2 points-1 points ago

I thought my girlfriend was the only one who said 'seeing as' instead of 'since'...

[–]rabidfish91 2 points3 points ago

I'm not your girlfriend

[–]moj_moj_too 0 points1 point ago

And she definitely isn't seeing as I say it too in the appropriate context.

[–]TheMintBandit 0 points1 point ago

I am your girlfriend

Knights of the round!

[–]razorbackgeek 3 points4 points ago

Reminds me of Just Cause 2.

[–]mxxz 2 points3 points ago

Well its really going to suck for those people when that finally errupts

[–]Saltyjak 2 points3 points ago

We have to go back, Kate!

[–]Sinisa26 2 points3 points ago

That is one of the most beautiful pieces if land I've ever seen.

[–]dekosser 1 point2 points ago

Reminds me of this excellent game

[–]Relwof66 0 points1 point ago

I heard you like craters

[–]mvrk10256 1 point2 points ago

or as we like to call it inception island.

[–]Superhomework -1 points0 points ago

Hoenn Exists?

[–]ZuberMario 0 points1 point ago

The Hoenn region is based on a part of Japan, just like the Kanto, Johto and Sinnoh regions.

[–]DuckDuckLandMine -1 points0 points ago

This should be where the back up location for the Mortal Kombat tournament in case Shang Tsung forgets to pay the electric bill on his island.

[–]ProfessorCaptain 1 point2 points ago

Oh look, an island of Panau!

Don't let Romney see this.

Holy shit, I haven't heard that song in years! Thanks!

[–]crowingzero 0 points1 point ago

Have any of you read Anathema?

This is exactly how I pictured the island that they go to midway through the book.

[–]YumCheese 0 points1 point ago

This reminds me of the island in World War Z, that the chinese sub supplies power to.

Totally reminds me of mr sinisters island valley in the Antarctic in the old xmen series.

[–]Klumpmeister -1 points0 points ago

Nice try Myst.

[–]Hap_Hazard 0 points1 point ago

Now won't they feel silly once that volcano becomes active again.

[–]mrdoods 0 points1 point ago

I thought I would never become one of these people who complain about reposts, but godamn if I ever see this image again...

Nobody mentioned Syndrome's Island yet?

[–]yesman609 0 points1 point ago

This island is actually called Aoga island. In Japanese shima means island, so if you say aogashima island, you're just saying aoga island island. Unless this isn't in japan, then I am wrong.

[–]CheddersB 0 points1 point ago

Where is this, and how do I get there?

[–]RunningInKumamoto 0 points1 point ago

'Shima' means island in Japanese, so you are being redundant and saying 'Aoga island island'.

[–]emerpus 1 point2 points ago

Im here to read all the Final Fantasy VII nostoligia, and their upset comments of a FF7 comment already being here.

[–]Chimie45 0 points1 point ago

Shima means 'island', therefore, the name is Aoga Island, in the same way that san means mountain so it's Mt.Fuji, rather than Mt. Fujisan

[–]AvatarJack 0 points1 point ago

Did part of the island fall off, the road looks like it just stops.
