Ok, so... file this one in the "I'm going to hell for it" folder. :)
BTW, sorry about missing the udpate last week. And also sorry to say that there will not be a comic next week either as we will be out of town.
Hope everyone has a happy and safe 4th of July! See you again on the 11th!

On the Spectrum #82: Careful...
(click to enlarge)
Yeah... Of course that's not what she meant... LOL.
Most of the time the kids write this stuff, but occasionally we do as well. ;)
BTW: THANK YOU to the folks over at Autisable for pickling up the strip and agreeing to syndicate it. Anyone who hasn't checked them out should do so, they run a lot of different blogs and get posts from a wide range of people within the autism communtiy. There's always something new and interesting being put up from somewhere. So take a look!

On the Spectrum #81: Two Brothers, family-friendly version

I got a response back from photobucket, but it was just thier standard form letter - the type of generic replay that would be vaguely appropriate for just about any question.
I did take a look at their 'terms of use,' however, and as far as I can tell this particular comic must have set off someone's 'kiddie-porn' alert or something. Which is funny, sicne the first and third panels were recycled from earlier strips that didn't have any problems! :)
So I've modified the strip, using Photobucket's own red-sticker to censor out the offending image.
I don't know... somehow it almost looks worse now! LOL

On the Spectrum #81: Two Brothers (re-posted)
For some reaosn the wise folks over at photobucket decided there was something offensive about my last comic, and the blocked it out. I'm going to wait for their official explanation as to why - or for the image to be reinstated - before speculating about it here, but I think I've got a pretty shrewd idea what the problem is.
Moonie's naked butt, perhaps?
Funny thing though - even as I was writing this reply, it seems that the image was reinstated in my blog, below, even though it's still red-lined over on their site.
Well whatever, we'll see. Despite any "terms of use" my edgy, controversial artwork might have violated, they do not have the authority to censor my blog. So just in case the offending image ends up going in and out intemittently, or if anyone still can't see it, I linked it in again, this time from a different source. Hopefully this will all work itself out, and I'll just take this second post down. Shouldn't really be necessary - you know, FREE SPEECH and all. Hilariously, this is actually the SECOND time I've run afoul of some organization's censoprhip. Can you believe it? THIS STUFF?! Seriously?
(The other time involved issue one, which a Michigan-sponsored Mental Health community newsletter had agreed to run, sans the tag at the bottom, only to have their editor axe it at the last minute saying it was 'too controversial.' Ah, politics.)
Well, whatever. I'll send them an email. Depending on how amusing their reply is I may post it here. LOL. We'll see.
