Hi guys, I need some opinion on the navigational buttons. I have one comic that is read from right to left. Is it advisable to switch the navigational button on my site such that the first comic link starts from the furthest right and the last comic link starts from the furthest left?

It might be confusing for your "typical" American audience, but if that is not your audience do it however it makes sense to you.

If your comic is intended to be read that way, it does make sense to me that the buttons would be switched. If worst came to worst you could always put a note somewhere explaining the set-up.

Since the buttons tend to be based on visual media buttons (think the fast forward, rewind and track buttons on a CD player), they don't typically do that even in Japan. I wouldn't advise it.

Thanks for the input guys. Guess I'll follow the original DD button navigation format. Just to keep everyone's sanity in tact. :P
