[edit] Serialization

I do think that infinite canvas causes a certain obstacle to serialization, because serialization, especially at a daily or weekly level is inherently discrete in terms of being divided into bits that can be produced in that timespan. --Random832(tc) 00:12, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

It can be an obstacle, sure, but it isn't necessarily. Infinite canvas only means that the artist can use whatever "page size" they want regardless of physical limitations (although there are still of course technical limitations regarding production and scrolling to read). One of the best-known examples of infinite canvas is Demian5's "When I Am King", which was serialized. An artist can also build on a single page in installments. — Gwalla | Talk 03:23, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
