Maybe you know - sometimes it's a fact that you've to face the normal things of life. At the moment I have to prove something for my own and have to arrange this and that in my "normal" life. And at least I want some time for my own. My day has simply 28 hours and you all know that this would simply break you apart sooner or later :o(. I must save my time and I couldn't shorten my work ('cause my life depends on it) and I can't stay on with sleeping those less as I'm doing at the moment. It would have been much easier if I would have known my website is in good hands - but as you've seen ... it shouldn't have been. So I'm really sorry that my website isn't available anymore - but at the moment I'm simply to tired to gone through all this procedure like searching a host uploading and then simply find out I'm taking again to much bandwidth ... . I'm really sorry about all this (please don't blame Rena, Steve or Allen (Harkleroad) for that - it wasn't their fault and it is not the reason that's Poserworld broke down why I'm leaving). So - will I come back ?? That's not easy to answere - it might be and I'll certainly be arround here sometimes - but I won't reply to any mail or message here (I don't think I'ld do it like Rena (only stay away at least 40 hours - lol). If I'll find out this "virtual" life I've lived here isn't worth to come back - well then I'll stay away from it ! What about the Schlabber-poses ?? Maybe (but only maybe) I'll collect it all on a CD and sell it then to a reasonable price (this isn't thought out allready) - and maybe I could earn then enough money to bring this site back on a server that could take the bandwidth (of course then the CD would have Poses that are not available on the new site). Thanks ... Of course I'ld like to thank all those wonderful people I've met here - those are to many to mention here allready - I'll certainly miss you - but I must do what I have to do ... What's left ... Nothing at all - at the moment I feel beaten and tired - but I'm not unhappy - 'cause I'll know - I would have more time in the future and I think I have the right for it (damned - I haven't spoken to some "real" friends now for months and some of them are really missing me :o) ). So wish me some luck ... and please don't be disappointed about what's going on in Poserland at the moment ... maybe it'll all turned out to a happy end :o) Goodbye Schlabber

we're going to miss you for sure, but sabbaticals are good for the soul like milk is for the body :) come back when you can, even if it's simply for a quick visit to say hi to everyone.... be happy, Styxx

Sorry to hear this from you, Schlabber. Your website was very professional and your poses were, too. Alles Gute!

I'm sorry to hear you're leaving too, but you've truly been one of the great contributors to Poser and everyone here. I hope you can find some happiness and peace back in the "real" world, and perhaps one day return to those here who care about you too. :) Good luck and thank you for all you've done. Take care!

Schlabber, I'm sorry to see you leave and I know what it is like to be too busy! Ha! I could swear I met myself in the hallway the other day. Didn't recognize myself right off because I looked so tired. When I turned to get a second look I was gone. Having said that, I see that at least part of the problem was the heavy concentratin of bandwidth your site took up on that particular server. It seems like you have a lot of friends and admirers here. Maybe something could be worked out to where you could divide up some of your downloads and have the hosting of them spread across several sites of various supporters (or SPONSORS if that is the way the term is used here). Of course, your downloads could clearly marked with your personal logo. Just a thought. But good luck in life. Larry F

mikes, "Sorry to see that you've also been hurt in the most recent bloodletting." What does that mean? Sorry if I'm out of the loop these days, what's going on? -Jeff

I'm fairly new here but before you go I want to say thanks. Your poses went along way towards improving my poser pictures. As my site say's 90% of my poses start out as your work. You will be missed. MoonbiterHelen posted Thu, 29 March 2001 at 7:59 PM
Take care... you will be missed... :(

Sorry to see you go, friend. I had been planning to download quite a bit from your site but always thought there would be a tomorrow. Oh well, if you decide to go the cd route, let us all know. I, personally would consider it good investment. Thanks and good luck!
