If you check the rest of the site, you might notice that it is a very Linux centric blog. Nothing wrong with that. Also I don't see his image in a logo anywhere on the home page. Only on the Linus interview pages. Seems reasonable to customize sections of a site.

I know his picture isn't in the logo on the homepage...thats why I said "article page". I also never said it was wrong to have Linux-centric blog.

If I were Linus and I saw a blog with my picture as the background of the website, all along the sidebar, and sitting above the blog logo, I'm sorry but I'd be creeped out.

I think he is just the background for articles related to that interview. Although I do agree it is a little weird just how many times his face shows just throughout the site.
