Have to agree with Ton about the part "he was the first person I knew who took sprite ripping seriously."
Back in the early 2000s it felt like many people, me included, just wanted to get rips done, sheet them somehow, submit, set 'n forget, whereas I think Webster was the only one of us who actually paid an immense amount of attention to detail and ensured that everything was in top notch condition. Even going as far as having them on a transparent background, which was very rare back then.
Pretty sure it was WaxPoetic who dropped the news and I was pretty devastated, not having dealt with the loss of an internet friend before.
I could ramble on an on and I do have a lot of good memories talking with him on MSN Messenger (or was it AIM?). He left a great legacy and I think everyone remembers him very fondly. Shame he passed at such a young age :C
