Yes, Christina Bartsch, who used to be a regular on the Bryce and Poser newsgroups told everyone about it on the Bryce newsgroup. I passed it along to the Poser newsgroup. Don was what I would call an online "friend". He was a very encouraging person and I know he got a kick out of seeing his most famous creation, Creepy Clown, being used (and abused) in other peoples renders. For those of you who may not know, Don liked his cigarettes and I have a strong feeling that may have contributed to his untimely death. His artwork always had just the right touch of both realism and illustration and it would be a very hard style to duplicate. He was always modest about his own talents but I'm sure he knew how good his artwork was. He, along with Yamato and Kozaburo, were my main inspiration for Poser/Bryce artwork. It won't feel the same in either the Poser or Bryce newsgroup without him. He'll be sorely missed.
