|description=Something Wrong is the first comic series in Syria to target young people between 15 and 30 years old. It's published in muptiple chapters, which can be browsed/downloaded from our website. It deals with different aspects of life in Syria (social, professional, educational).
|output=- The chapters can be browsed through our website.
- The chapters can also be downloaded as PDF files.
- Promotional meterials will be published throughout the life span of the project (extras, wallpapers ...)
|community=We are targeting young people in Syria (and the Arab world in general) between 15 and 30 years old.
The project will help the commuinty with addressing the issues that people face in their social and professional lifes. It also helps economically by starting a market that is virtually non-existent in Syria.
|community relationship=We are included in the community we are targeting (we're all between 23 and 27 years old) with difficulties regarding starting our own project, which puts us among the best candidates to address the issues faced by this community.
We are well experienced in web design, and have self-taught comic artists (since we don't have the proper training for such a specialty in our country).
|measurement=Larger community, since it's our target, and because we are depending on ads on the website and inside the comic chapters to fund the project.
|participants=We currently have 7 members, and expect to expand the team to include about 5 more by the end of year 2010
|impact=CC is not very well known in Syria. We help by publishing under CC, using its logos, and helping people to understand it.
|tech needs=We use the arts and concepts of creating comics (writing, drawing, painting ...). Our comics are computer generated so we use design software such as Adobe Photoshop, Flash, and Illustrator.
|challenges=- Comminty not fully understanding that comics can be for grown-ups. We can overcome this with the help of fans of foreign comics/manga.
- Lack of funds. We are trying to promote ads on the website and in the comic chapters, as well as sponsorship.
|sustainability=- Ads on the website and in the comic chapters, as well as sponsorship.
- Publishing other comic projects created by us or other teams.
|scalability=This is our pilot project, so it's our first hands-on experience for creating comics. However, we are planning to add lots of other projects in the future.
|resource needs=Mostly using the license
|budget=Something-Wrong-Budget.pdf
|legal=Yes
