F...... cancer...
My condolences

Sad news.
Rest in Peace Mr. MIZ

Here is a photoshop tutorial done by Bob - the only one I could find so far.

He had so many more, but he was constantly changing around his website.  If anyone finds any of this other tutorials online, maybe we should start a thread and link them all in.   

It's nice to be able to hear his voice one last time.

Sad news, condolences to the family. Seems like his words touched us as much as his tutorials.
Opinionated and provocative but always willing to help. 

Cancer sucks!!!

His humor and view of this crazy world will be greatly missed.

My condolences. A very sad news, I will miss his comments.

Condolences to the family of Mr. Robert. Sad and shocking news...i learned a lot from his tutorial.

We miss his sense of humor on this community.

Here is the video direct.

Very sad news indeed. I just joined the forums and started to enjoy rjmiz posts, when they suddenly stopped coming, and now this..... His sarcastic, yet informative posts brought life to many a discussion. My deepest sympathy goes to his family and his close friends...

I only just found out about the Miz this morning.  So very sad.  His tutorials were very helpful to me and saved me hours of work.  I didn't always agree with his views but his posts were definitely entertaining at times.  He will be missed.  My sincerest condolences to his family.   

Hi everyone,
this is the first time I post in this forum. I'm too small a fish to be considered interesting, so I keep quiet. I'll make an exception in honour of MIZ.
His death was a shock and it is a great loss to all of us.
But I find it  sad and disturbing when people like the poster before consider him as 'definitely entertaining AT TIMES'.
He was far from it.
He was highly intelligent, highly creative, exceptional artist and an exceptional man.
He wasn't the average 'Joe'.
And that is why I will deeply miss his posts, his help and his views.
I doubt that the pixelbrat above will ever be able to produce anything as 'entertaining' as MIZ did. Not even 'at times'.
RIP MIZ.

not sure where this came from,. it seems like a simple disagreement / misunderstanding of language.. but i really don't think pixelbrat meant her comment as an insult in any way.  She was simply saying that his posts, which she didn't always agree with, were, if nothing else often entertaining.  I would have to agree with her.  The Miz made many very controversial posts, some very serious, some completely sarcasm or humor.  They were often the kind of posts you agreed with or did not agree with, you couldn't be in the middle.

Pixelbrat's post was complimentary not derogatory.  ... but enough, we don't need to discuss this.
I don't want this thread to turn into some petty argument.

We´ll join you when time comes miz.   Lonely here on the forum without you...

What I remember about "The Miz", Bob was very quick posting and replying, at times it seems he had many hands typing or he had pre-writen things and would paste to fire at you very fast.

The miz was provocative & sarcastic with a cranky unique perspective but with a great sense of humor.
He made the forums fun, sometimes made it too much fun.
At times he could make contact with people like is done to cattle with the point of an electrically charged goad.

He was also:
crotchety, cantankerous, capricious, choleric, contumacious unsteady, crabby, cross, cross-grained, crotchety, difficult, disagreeable, grouchy, irascible, irritable, ornery, out of sorts, peevish, perverse, petulant, querulous, splenetic, stubborn, testy, touchy, unreasonable and vinegary...

...and many a time he could also:
aggravate, anger, annoy, arouse, bait, bother, bug, cause, chafe, challenge, displease, egg on, exacerbate, exasperate, excite, foment, galvanize, generate, harass, impel, incense, incite, inflame, infuriate, inspire, instigate, insult, ire, irritate, madden, move, motivate, offend, outrage, perturb, pique, prod, prompt, propel, quicken, rile, rouse, ruffle, set off, spur, start, stimulate, stir, tease, touch off, trigger, upset, vex and work up many people at once...

...but he was still loved.
In his last post before getting baned at SS replying to a "admin", he said:

Quote from: rjmizWhy bother? You do anything about it anyway!

We will miss his unique and motivating sense of humor.
We will miss his particular, distinctive, characteristic mode of  posting that kept things lively in the forums.
I think Bob's first action in heaven was he Photoshoped color in-to one of the white wings of the angel that greeted him to paradise.
Now will the economy allow us to redeem the "Miz Points".
Goodbye Miz , and rest in peace.
Sam.

Rest in Peace MIZ

Thanks for everything MIZ, I'll miss you.  Rest in Peace.

I agree with pixelbrat. R.I.P. See you in a few years. Oh, and wherever you are now - I hope they have forums there and a computer running Photoshop.

I've only been a member a few days and I've been reading up on the past posts and learning a lot from people. MIZ has taught me more from his posts than I've learnt reading the so called top sellers sites and its a sad loss that I'll never get to banter with him and experience his wit here as I hopefully get to know people and learn more. There are few people that touch so many lives and he's certainly helped so many to find their feet in the stock world.

Terrible news. He helped me out personally a lot with Photoshop things. I enjoyed taking the piss out of him in posts and he was pretty quick witted.

I sincerely hope he has found peace, and hope his family are able to deal with their loss.

Very sad.  I really enjoyed his sense of humor.  My condolences to his family.
What a shock!

we all will miss you, MIZ

This is very sad, and also comes as a shock considering it seems no time at all since Miz was on here participating with his unique sense of humour 
It's always such a shame when you hear someone has lost a battle against cancer 
R.I.P. Miz

rest in peace the miz gonna miss your humour and help
