Misleading Thumbnails
Links from posts on Lemmy, for which there is a misleading thumbnail.
Friends from other places:
How to make a post?
- For the link, use the original image or website link from the other post
- For the title, describe what the subject of the thumbnail appears to be, and don't describe the full-size image in any way.
- Add a link to the original post in the post body or comments (to help people discover new content and communities)
Detailed Description, based off the description from the subreddit:
A place to share links that, when posted to Lemmy, generate a thumbnail that misleads people into seeing something entirely different than what the full-size image ends up being. This almost always occurs in an unexpected fashion, where shrinking down an image to thumbnail-size suddenly creates an illusion one would not have expected.
Note that your particular front-end or app may cause the illusion to be different!
Rules
Please use the report button on posts that don't fit the theme!
-
Only post images where the Lemmy thumbnail creates a unique optical illusion, causing the subject in the thumbnail to appear to be something totally different from the subject in the full-size image. Some content will be better off posted to different communities.
-
No images that are essentially what you say they are.
-
No images that are intentionally set up to mislead or intentionally designed to look like your post title. This includes AI generated illusions.
-
Do not post images that are screenshots or that have superimposed text.
-
No NSFW posts for now
