Stupid computer.... stupid me

[Roboliver]

I was struggling with a layout last night. I'd been working on it 2 HOURS!!!! I couldn't get anything to work right. FINALLY I was liking it & was about 2/3rds done when my computer crashed. I'd forgotten to save it. ARGH!!!!





Now that was embarrassing!

i am famous for not saving my Psd files until they are done, been there and i feel your pain.

(*i'm not a tech guru and lots of techie things go right over my head, but i think PS CC now has a built in saving function bc this happened recently to me and the PSD file was recovered when I reopened PS. why it didn't automatically do that in previous versions is beyond me! )

That save feature has definitely saved me a few minutes of lost work but it doesn't work 100% of the time, at least for me.

Hihi, I know this from my old computer.... Not fun at all!!!!!

Oh my gosh - I just had the same thing happen the other day when the power went out. I had my page done, only needed journaling! So frustrating!

That used to be my story about 75% of the time when scrapping until I got CS6. So sorry. It's so frustrating, I know.

I know exactly how you feel! Mine was one of the M3 pages that I had been working on for AGES and then there was a power drop out in our street and it was GONE ..... I said a few choice words and got mad at myself because I hadn't been saving! Lesson should be learned but I still don't think I save nearly enough!

My newest cat is prone to jumping up on my scrap desk and rubbing all over the keyboard and tablet. Whenever I see him, it's a knee jerk reaction to save again.

oh no! That is such a horrible feeling... but I think we've all done that. Hopefully you can remember the parts you liked once it started coming together and you can recreate it a lot faster the 2nd time around...
