Vertical scrolling is fine. Horizontal... BLAh!!!

I took a peek at PPG. Wow, that's nice, but the scrolling drives me nuts! It really messes with the continuity of the comic for me.

If you look all over his site, you'll find tons of random things he's done. Random photos, articles, and various other things.

So generaly scrolling down is acceptable while scrolling across is unacceptable.

Yup, although I'm sure no one would mind an occassional sideways scroll if required for a specific narrative effect.

Have you seen <a href="http://www.e-sheep.com/spiders/02/">Spiders</a>?

It's horizontalastic! But that's only the beginning... it breaks the mold completely after that.
