Modern Tales has syndication for quite a large number of comics. Its not rss though – its javascript based seems to be designed to deliver comic to web pages rather than a news feed aggregator. List here;

Generally I've seen comic artists upset about it because they *aren't* paying for the hosting themselves, and if people don't see the banners, it sorta takes away from the advertisers who are paying for their bandwidth. If there's a way to do it with the advertisers support, so that you see the ads of the sponsors, then perhaps more comics would be available. I don't know of many artists who can afford to host the stuff on their own.

I'm not denying that times do change, I'm simply stating that it's still wrong of Chris (Pirillo) to knock something of which he built his “empire” upon.

To the last Chris who posted… times change. It's not hypocritical or ironic… it's how the online world has changed. If you'll listen to what Chris (Pirillo) has to say in the coming months, or if you've been paying attention to what he's been saying in his newsletters, you'll understand why this is his new position on e-mail newsletters.

“I don't want to subscribe to e-mail newsletters anymore.”
Don't you find this hypocritical as you yourself started out sending and receiving e-mail newsletters, what's more you started your whole online embargo with e-mail newsletters. So to say that you no longer want to subscribe to them…..

I think RSS' real potential (as far as comics go, at least) is for webcartoonists. There are quite a few programs out there that rip webcomics from their home site, which has some webcartoonists up in arms because we rely on our readers to visit the site for everything from moral to financial support; many webcartoonists view these programs as little more than a drain on bandwidth (although, for upstarts like myself, any publicity is good publicity). While not preferable to having folks actually drop by our site, at least RSS feeds allow us to add a little blurb of text to our comics. Of course, who am I to talk…my RSS feed doesn't yet include my comic and I've got a plugin for “iComic” on my home page.

Blowing my own trumpet here I guess (although Tina already mentioned my Garfield feed – thanks!), but you can find more at http://dwlt.net/tapestry/.

I've found about 8 or 9 “unofficial” Dilbert feeds. I know you were bemoaning the lack of official feeds, but from a viewer's perspective, if the feed works, unofficial is as good as official :P

Okay, I just figured out how to do the image in RSS. Now I have to figure out a way that this can be done without having to re-enter the code and re-upload the file manually every single time…
