Recently I heard from a good friend of mine and a contributor to WinCustomize. Many of you may remember the great DesktopX themes created by Sebastien Bruneau, known as The_Artist.

Sebastien always had a vision to create the Next Generation operating system before Microsoft could. I think in many ways he was influential and certainly his themes were popular. Screenshots of his work appeare on Paul Thurrott's site, for example.

Sebastien is serving his country in the Canadian Armed Forces and is going to be a father for the second time.

Please join me in wishing him the best. Hopefully, we will some more of his great work in the future.
