- 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.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.

that's a tough one. I miss PfSD. I loved that one. Saved my favorite strips when they'd pop up. I didn't know the author transitioned. I'd attribute it as Pictures for Sad Children by [name, not deadname], but honestly i'd ask the author what they'd like if i could get in touch.
you're still the same person under there, and were back then, just people didn't know you by that name is how i view it.
The Wikipedia article attributes the strip to Simone Veil, and that’s what their current Patreon goes by, so I guess that’s what I’d go with. I had actually stumbled across one direct interview a number of years after the project wound down, and really appreciated her opening up about it.
thank you. I got really into webcomics when i was going through my surgical processes (gotta hyperfocus on something, right?). I had an RSS feed of my 150 favorite (rough number). I always liked to have a peek behind the curtain and was rooting for the best for my authors
