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.

The Smile.Amazon program was pretty rad. I managed to contribute some extra funds to the EFF and talked a few friends into picking them as their charity too. I think the EFF received almost a million dollars from that program. Then one day Amazon was like "nah, we hate helping people" and just cancelled the program.
I stopped seeing things about it but I didn't even realize they killed it. What a shame.
They said it didn't have as big of an impact as they had hoped, so they were cancelling it. A rational person would say "it's not as impactful as we want, so we're improving it", but big corporations are all about killing projects.
