I feel like I must warn anyone who would seek the help of DesignerRicky (v7 username).
History- I had a contest, he pm'd me and said if we agree to have him win the contest then we will do all the request for less then my contest was running for. He even sent a sample of what he could do for me. I was impressed and said ok. He asked for a $75.00 deposit and would send the images within 48 hours. You guessed it, nothing came. He is still on these boards and I am sure talking up a storm. This was just my experience with him and hopefully does not represent all of his actions but in an effort to be honest and open, others must know that he has not sent back my advance (upon multiple requests on email, IM and even filing a Paypal complaint).
If fact to substantiate my experience here is a transcript of a recent IM I had with him and as you can see, when he figures out who it is he stops answering.
Ricky, if you read this am I mi representing anything? You have your chance to clear your name and this instance if I did.

XXXXXXXX@comcast.net says:

XXXXXXXX@comcast.net says:
looking into it?
XXXXXXXX@comcast.net says:
let me refresh your mind- I sent you a $75.00 deposit and you did nothing and have not sent me back the advance that you asked for before you started the project. Is that how you operate normally?
