Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Obligitory:
This phrase doesn't mean what everyone thinks it means. "The customer" != you, "the customer" refers to the market as a whole.
As in if I run Bob's Hat Emporium and I only sell red hats, and purple hats become the latest fashion, well I best goddamn stock some purple hats.
It doesn't mean that you gets this scarf for free because you found it in the wrong section, Carol.
It's definitely not a literal rule that says do whatever a customer wants, but I think of it as a motivational concept to encourage employees to give customers what they want whenever possible, and if they want something you can't give them, act sympathetic to them as if they're right.
The Lord's work, right here.
