There might be other things I would refrain from, but with me, almost anything goes.
soft core is okay though :lol: (sorry, couldn't resist)

Frankly, I don't see the humour in something so revolting as the sexual exploitation of children.

I'm sorry if you misunderstood me, but I was meaning to make a joke about SYNTAX not kiddy fiddling.

please let me explain:
when you wrote:

2) Graphic child pornography.

If you take that statement super literally it makes it sound like you would be happy putting in other kinds, as long as it wasn't hard core
. Since I was 100% certain that wasn't what you meant, I made a little jab.

From the nature of you banner I thought you wouldn't be offended- I am very sorry to have upset you.

damn... pretty soon there's actually something akin to child pornography in my comic... shit

well - it'll be a drunk alien dad 'accidentally' nailing his son, who he thinks is his wife due to alcohol-halucinations...

oops - spoiler.... :oops:


but what i'd truly refrain from?

anything that'd get me in trouble - and considering how far i'd actually have to go in order to even start getting the attention of law enforcement (i dont know if I got any danish police officers watching my comic) then I doubt that'll ever happen...

Although my comic has a few sexual moments, I tend to shy away from showing anything extremely graphic. For the most part, any sex in the comic is implied or censored somehow. In one comic a character was giving another oral, but I just showed the top of their head.

Okay, another thing... strong language. I try to keep the dialogue relatively clean, but I might slip a 'damn' in there every now and then. Anything stronger than that gets the Q-Bert treatment.

Another is gore or any graphic violence. There is no place for either in "World of Fizz", so it's a no go.

Of course, all this just applies to my current comic. If I had another where some of the stuff I mentioned would fit, I would use it.
