Hello,
I know a lot of people hear are quite young and don't follow the exciting world of retro gaming, but the other day the creator of http://www.retroremakes.com, Steve Phelps (aka The Toker) died, aged 37. You might know RetroRemakes from the OneSwitch games competition thread posted here a few weeks ago, or indeed the Annual Remakes competition). Anyway The Toker was a top bloke and is a big loss.

If anyone did frequent the site, there is a 'book of condolences' to sign in the forum.

Neil.

Hmmm... mortality is quite the b1tch. That's far too young to pop off, but these things happen. At least he left a legacy of sorts behind.

Graphic file formats used to fascinate me, but now I find them rather satanic.

That's so sad though, especially since he was only 37. Was it health related?
