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.

I think sometimes it's just having something to talk about, some way to engage and be interested/friendly. I can't really say, "wow, nice photo, you must have hit that focal length just right," if I think that means you kept a distance from your subject the length of a Ford Focus.
Ya, I understand that. I sorta blame the camera phone. Back in the 90s, before digital cameras came out, I never got the equipment question. Comments were closer to what pencils artists were getting. "How long did you practice to get this good? Did you take classes or you just read books to learn how to draw? "
But as camera phones became more filtered and more "creative", the more people associated better photos with better cameras.
