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.

If you want to see some awful SKUs, look at what HP did when they bought Poly. I'll give you an example:
8D8K2AA#ABA. That's for a Poly x52 video bar.
83Z51AA#ABA. Poly x70 video bar.
83Z50AA#ABA. Poly G7500 controller.
I asked our Poly rep what the naming scheme was and they told me....there isn't one. HP randomly assigned SKUs.
Before getting bought out, Poly SKUs were pretty bad (7200-87620-001) but at least the system made sense. You might not be able to name the item but you could at least tell the difference between products and warranties.
