Ask an admin to ask him for the PSD, if he can't provide then he can't prove that's his.

He hasn't said its his so asking a mod to ask him to remove should be enough,

Hell, all of EP has seen him using the sig and avatar, when I get home, I'll write up a post on behalf of the Void and send it to an admin/mod, saying "come on over and ask any one of us about it". I'll put in a link to this thread as well. If anyone would like to volunteer their name to be inserted into said post, please say so here.

So, submitted for your approval:
"To the administration staff of Maxconsole:
Please first view the following thread:http://endlessparadigm.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=14793&page=1
It has come to the attention of the members at EndlessParadigm.com that a member of your forums, The_Doctor, had come to this site and taken without permission the sig and avatar created by one of our members, Squee666. As the creator of the sig and avatar, he contacted your member and asked him to stop using his work, a request he ignored. Here wee have a forum full of people who know that Squee made the work, and have seen him using it for the better part of the year, so its origin should not be in question. Now, I know its the internet, and images are floating around all over the place, but this is not a meme, this is not a random lol pic someone threw out there, it is a piece of work that someone put effort into, and a situation where the creator of the work specifically requested another person remove, and who's request was ignored. I know for most its a minor issue, but this is about a matter of respect for the work that a person has done, and I hope that you see the distinctionhere, and I hope you would be willing to step in and support ..."
Ehh, ran out of steam, someone want to bat cleanup?

Count me in dude, put my name on whatever list this is. This phag should be hammer-smacked for being suck a poser. I mean it aint that big a deal legally, but people like this diserve to suffer for taking someone else's graphical work and claiming it as their own.
I could hack this kiddie I'm seriously considering it.
@Games like a Grrl: how about squeezing something like this somewhere in there....
"In the opinion of the EP community, this kind of behaviour is not only immoral - but malicious. Some of us even regard it as outright theft of identity - an avatar and signature is more than just a statement; it's an indication of 'who I am'. As I'm sure you know, many people in the world share a common username and/or avatar among many various communities, and with that said the original bearer of said avatar/signature is actually in fear of being misinterpreted as somebody else whom he is obviously not. In that sense, it is malicious as this {insert lamers' name} has not only 'borrowed' the identity of our good member, but is impersonating his very image in the cyber world"
I dunno. I just typed all that without thinking about it, it's not very concise. Heh.
