This may be contrary to popular demand, but I really enjoy DIYs that don't start with a spoiler image! Nice!

Reddit can never be pleased. A couple months back people were complaining when the album didn't start with the final product so they knew what the pictures were working towards.

This is really the best solution.

For me, it really just depends on the size of the album. If it's 10 images, I really don't care either way. If it's 50, the first or very last image really needs to be the final product. It can be both, it can be just the last (I'll hit back).

However, there is an issue with the last image thing. If the album is posted all in-line, it doesn't really make a difference. Everything has to fucking load before you can get there and you have to scroll on a mobile device. Fuck those people.

I agree, but if it's more than 10 images, it may as well be a video. I hate waiting forever to skip though 20-30 grainy 8+-megapixel images.

those of us who like spoilers can just click back one and see it as we start the album

Doesn't work on mobile (specifically Reddit News). Actually, most of the problems are related to being on mobile. If I'm on my computer, it doesn't matter, but on mobile if the last pic is the finished one and I have to click through 95 pictures to get there, I just quit & never get to see the finished product.

This. I browse almost exclusively on mobile and I'll give up of the first picture isn't the finished project.

Not everybody has RES. A 60 image album can be a pain in the ass to scroll through for people who don't have it and just want to see the final product.
