Lens,
I have (again) had a good talk with Duane. I would not speak up for him at all had he not made good on his promise that he made to me last year to pay Rikki Lee. Believe me, I made it my mission to utterly trash he and Hungryman over that issue across nearly 10 webmaster boards. I had 9/10's of the webmaster community buzzing about it.
I find him, on your issue, to be remorseful and apologetic. He does fully intend to do the 172 galleries for you. I asked him point blank what his intentions were regarding that debt, his reply was that he never intended not to do them.
None of my concern whatsoever of course, but I do like to see people making good on promises and keeping their word.
The icq log I have on file of our conversation tonight backs up what I am saying on his behalf here. All just words though, and I am of course more about actions than mere words. Hopefully he puts the screws to himself and get's the work done and over to you asap. Since he obviously wants to continue doing business on the web, it is certainly in his best interest to do so.
Lastly, I don't blame you at all for sending a wakeup call to anyone doing business with him. Obviously you are at the end of your rope on this issue, people need to realize that. I would not continue doing business with someone while that someone screws somebody else, and Pussyman should take note of that.
Cheers.
