I rather hope it's some hacker instead of himself. Would mean he'll be back if it was a hacker. He's on my favorite list too. He seems to be on good terms with everyone here. I haven't seen a negative sounding post from him. The last I remember is he was happy about one of his renders for a space showing/convention thing. You think he's going pay-per-view like that digitalblasphemy.com place and thus limiting where his free images are? I dunno.. wild speculations.
