Users at crowd-driven content web sites Reddit and Digg have been asking for an image section for a long time, to no avail. The reason is simple: a lot of the popular content on both websites actually consists only of images. Users have been marking this content with prefixes like [IMG] or [PIC] - check out the Reddit homepage at any time and you’ll surely find a lot of those. But, for some reason admins at both Digg and Reddit have so far declined to introduce an image section.

Well, there’s some good news for Redditers now: there’s an unofficial Reddit media website over at redditmedia.com which is autogenerated out of Reddit content, and displays only images and videos posted on Reddit with small thumbnails for easier navigation. Neat. If this site turns out to be popular, it might be a trigger for Reddit or even Digg to finally do an image section of their own.
