OK, so does anyone know how utterly STUPID one feels when she is almost done with their PL spread, after working on it for 2 days off and on, to find that she DID NOT SAVE it along the way... after her program crashes.

It's just 2 pages, but seriously! I had chosen and edited the photos, done the journaling, filled with tons of extras. And have lost it all. I SO know better than this! Sigh.

Just had to share my frustration... :furious
 
(((hugs))) I've gotten a whole week finished, flattened, resized for the web and closed....not realizing that I'd forgotten to save the original size!!! SOOOO feel your pain!!! Grrrrrrrrrr
 
Ugh. I hate when I do that. I was at a retreat this weekend and I bet you at least five different times I would get to the end of the page and realize that I had never saved along the way. As you said, we should know better, but sometimes when the mojo is flowing and you're cruising along you just forget! :(
 
Oh god, I agree, there's nothing more frustrating. And it's so damn hard to re-do everything, knowing you could be finished already... I'm so sorry :(.
 
Oh no! I'm also dying at the thought of having Photoshop or Pixelmator running for 2 straight days without ever restarting it. My poor compy would be throwing a hissy fit.

Hey now. That was hard :giggle

In my defense, I was working (outside the home) those 2 days, so wasn't really on the computer much. I know, I know... no excuse, LOL.

And FYI... finished the re-do in much less time, hehe

Yay for getting it re-done. It does usually go faster, but that is SO discouraging when you have worked so hard on it!!
 
Awesome for you that you finished the second go around. I have had that happen a couple times and it has discouraged me almost to the point of just forgetting about it.
