From what i've heard all we know is that Setekh's mother got really sick and family matters come first, so of course we can understand his not being around HLP as much, but still... he's probably under a lot of stress, and i'm sure he misses interacting with the community he's created and established.  

I propose that each of us (using whatever program we're used to, be it Photoshop, Ulead, Paint Shop, or even something simple, like Paint, if we're not good with graphics) make let's say a  600x400 pixels 'card'  and put on that whatever the heck we want... we could put a picture of ourselves, and write a message to him saying we miss him and we hope his mom's getting better... or we could even tell him about some of the stuff we and the community as a whole has been involved in... perhaps post your latest render as a background and write a message on top

regardless, i think it would be a good idea, and if everyone on HLP forums or anyone that knows him could each send their own 600x400 file with their stuff on it we could zip all of them together and call it by their first name, or even have a 'slideshow' using javascript or flash or whatever, so he can read through them.

A pretty good quality 600x400 JPEG can be about 30 KB, so a ton of them doesn't have to be that big, especially when "winzipped" :D

we could perhaps do a slide show in Flash or Javascript or something, then upload it or even burn it on a CD for him so he can view them at his convenience with no loading times.

It's just an idea, but i'm sure he's missing his community, and it must be very stressful, and i'm sure this will cheer him up and makle him feel better.

So how about it?

:D

Is he ever coming back, BTW?

And, yes, I agree, but, unfortunately, I don't know how to render? What about people like me?

I agree, this is definitely something Setekh would go for.

As for myself, I don't have any Photoshop or any other type of visual program on my comp, but if CP5670 is willing, he can sign for me and contribute to this picture.

Nice, nice.

From what we know, though, he's pretty fine - even taking up responsibility as something I can't remember the name of at his school. Ask Icespeed if you want to know about him, she goes to the same school as he.
Probably away. Contact through email.

Setekh Last Seen: 5/30/02' 7:53am

I was looking around at Message Tracking, and some of Setekh's PM's said last online then. So remember the rumors of seeing him around for a few min a few months ago? He was viewing.

I'm certainly confused :)

Anyhow, the last I heard of Setekh he was doing really well in school, he's part of an elite 10 head-boy type people out of hundreds or something like that which shows he has to be good at something other than renders after all ;)

Suffice to say, I think he's (like me) spending more and more time on real life matters - hence no checking of email or anything. Contacting him may be tricky and if you were thinking of emailing him these cards of yours then I'd be careful - you don't want to flood his mailbox and shut it down accidentally!

I like the idea, but indeed he must read his e-mail to see what we made for him. And i sugest if it's bigger then 1mb you should split it in 2...He hasn't have a very fast conection as far as i know:)
But the idea is good:)

If it comes to that and you guys actually go ahead with this then assuming he reads his email and assuming he still can - you can upload the whole shabang to a folder on HLP then send him the links.
