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.

[–]Ironia_Rex[S] 7 points8 points ago

Thank You, made my day!

[–]CodyModo 1 point2 points ago

They sell shirts, art prints, coats, stickers, and have an amazing blog. Also, they love Carl Sagan

[–]KingTyr 0 points1 point ago

Thank you for my new favorite website.

[–]ThirstyWork 2 points3 points ago

This reminds me of Dark City

[–]fantes_friend 2 points3 points ago

I like this one better - This is how books work http://fumaga.com/i/this-is-exactly-how-books-work.JPG

Inspector space time

[–]rumour58259 1 point2 points ago

Needs a TARDIS!

[–]MJBBOY 2 points3 points ago

Is it me, or is this just really lame looking? I don't know, I guess this is front page worthy now.

[–]p13t3rm 0 points1 point ago

You're right, Like I said in my post, it's very sloppily photoshopped.

[–]p13t3rm 1 point2 points ago

This is some pretty terrible photoshopping. From the the edge blurring of the wall and person on the ladder, To the highly contrasted and clearly overlaid space scene in the back, Down to the random garbage piled in front of the wall.

[–]glitchdocta 1 point2 points ago

Clearly overlaid space scene? You mean this isn't a real photo!?!

[–]p13t3rm 0 points1 point ago

My bad, i was a little drunk, i meant BADLY overlaid. That guy must have seriously slapped about 12 pictures on that background after Google imaging space.

[–]TooKooL2Care -1 points0 points ago

This is so iintense!

[–]vuhleeitee 1 point2 points ago

Oh. Look at that. Ladder for Booker T. Washington. Well, ain't that nice...

[–]Dimitri1033 0 points1 point ago

Shit my pants awesome.

[–]SlightlyScummy 0 points1 point ago

This has been my moms faceook picture for nearly a year. I asked her where she found it and her response was like a fairly odd parents moment "uhh, internet."

[–]rolledtight 1 point2 points ago

That planet is hundreds of light years long.

[–]Lereegon 0 points1 point ago

Or those stars are very tiny

[–]weazl 0 points1 point ago

Made me think of Dark City

[–]danbuck11 0 points1 point ago

THE FUCKING MAC/APPLE GALAXY IS THERE :D

[–]chak2005 0 points1 point ago

looks like Hercule Poirot just solved his greatest case yet...the universe.

[–]pedanticprimate 0 points1 point ago

This is totally how I imagined the HP Lovecraft story "The Music of Erik Zahn."

[–]himurax3x 0 points1 point ago

That ladder is about to break any moment.

[–]ms_meepers 0 points1 point ago

sooo...why is Charlie Chaplin looking at the universe from a ladder?

[–]okonikinakonamba 1 point2 points ago

Stars in front of a planet?

[–]psYberspRe4Dd 0 points1 point ago

that actually was for a long time the header and sidebar image of /r/singularitynetwork that is a network of subreddits you find in the menu bar on top of it. And it's still used at /r/transhuman.

[–]saciavosmia 0 points1 point ago

That ladder is at a museum in Dallas, here's a pic I took: Imgur

[–]cryingblackman -2 points-1 points ago

I had to make sure this wasn't posted in /r/athiesm because of all the stupid things I've seen recently.

[–]uchallenginme -3 points-2 points ago

someone better at stuff than me should make this into a facebook banner....for science or something.

[–]Ironia_Rex[S] 1 point2 points ago

Funny story, I found this because my friend set it as his cover photo.

[–]IAmTheGingaNinja -4 points-3 points ago
