Skyrim Mods - New sight hosting mods?

So I came across this after watching as it was linked in their description as a sight to download that mod. Once there I find that several popular mods are posted but by the same person. Is this sight legit and done with permission or is this another one of those rogue sights?

The download link for one ultimately linked back to SkyNex, so I don't think there's anything wrong... right now.

I don't see anything wrong with it myself - it looks like the author is just reviewing and giving overviews of mods that he likes, and then providing links back their Nexus pages. I don't see anything that indicates he's stealing mods; as in, hosting them on his own site and trying to claim that he created them.

Having said that, it would be nice if he'd give a mention to the mod authors in his write ups.

I agree the site does present itself in an odd way, to appear to be hosting these mods, but it all links back to the Nexus.

Locked at OP's request.
