Swanny's Models appears to be no more.

Swanny's models page/account appears to be suspended. Hope it is not permanent as I liked his info.

Yep, he had some good tips there. Nothing lasts forever.....

Matt pulled the plug on the 18th. His work/home life was taking up too much of his time to properly manage the modeling/website end and the site itself never recovered fully from the big fight a few years back. He just couldn't justify paying the cost of maintaining the site.

The only bright side was that this was a planned out shut-down. He has the full site backed up and can bring it back to life where it cut off if he chooses to do so.

I don't know the man nor have any personal insights, just summarizing his comments shortly before the shutdown.

Thanks for the info. Was not aware. But still very sorry to see it go. Feels sad as I actually wrote (email) to him a few times and he very kindly replied to my questions.

You can try the "Wayback machine" and find many of the old sites incl. Swanny's.

Was the fight over a misaligned rivet?

You can, but it is riddled with broken links, and missing graphics. Just tried looking up one of my favorite of his posts, and it was unreadable.

That's a shame Swanny's website is Kaput.

There was a lot of good stuff on there.

was a good one...

It sure was a good one!

I just tried to to check it out and saw it was removed. Saw this link in my browser and couldn't believe it. I loved that site. Hopefully one day he can bring it back.

Just now saw this post. Hard to believe Swanny's is gone. His site will be sorely missed. Hope that one day he revives it.
