been reading through this whole thread as i'm currently looking for a designer so was curious about the goings on about paying for custom work.

Feel sorry for anyone who has paid this guy as its not right what ever way you look at it, he could be 5 years old, or 40 years old the fact is he's ripping people off.
As some people have mentioned that he may be just too busy or had pc taken off him theres nothing stoping him from coming on here and making a post saying im sorry to anyone who has paid for custom work to be done iam currently very busy with work at the moment.
he should also have by now closed his site down with a similar notice and sent a mass e-mail to his members.

it's opened my eye's about what goes on and will be very careful before choosing a designer for my site.:cross-eyed:
