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.

Amusingly, in a way, we are using microphotography (photolithography) to produce images on the scale of hundreds of atoms. Then we stack those images to achieve dense structures of data that can be read out electronically (flash chips).
Making a rom chip using this technology would be a lot like that encyclopedia britannica in a matchbox, except more around the size of a grain of dust. Of course we tend to make ram instead, where information is only encoded after the photolithography is done creating the structure.
