      @NessIllustration Crashes always happen at the worst times. It's like they know when they can do the most emotional and mental damage with their shenanigans.

      That. Friggin'. Sucks. My condolences 😞

        @Buddy-Skelton I usually work in Photoshop and it saved automatically every 6 minutes, however this morning I'm doing lineart and I've never liked doing lineart in Photoshop, so I was over on Paint Tool Sai 😞 No recovery options whatsoever. The program is very light though, so I'm shocked my computer crashed in the first place! I don't understand what happened...

        @Braden-Hallett Thanks Braden.. You're right, it always seems to be at the worst timing!

          Big BUMMER. HUGE! πŸ˜•
          Here is my Pollyanna spin on this type of crappy situation.
          Take a deep breath and realize that now you have a chance to make it even better than it was.
          I’m sorry if it’s too soon. I don’t want to seem like I’m making light of the loss of your hard work. πŸ™‚πŸ’›

            @burvantill Hihi thanks! I have caught up to where I was this morning, so I feel much better about it now! That's a good way to look at it too, I will keep that in mind next time my computer crashes (let's face it, it will happen again haha!)

                      @Eli Thanks Eli! I caught back to where I was in the afternoon and felt so much better after that haha.. In the moment, I was just so discouraged!

                        Urgh I hate it when that happens @NessIllustration , i'm glad to hear you've caught up with your work again!
                        Don't you hate it when you've done a load of work and it's all been on the wrong layer too? haha! Or maybe that's just me!

                          @NessIllustration thank you. I don’t get them often, but when they hit it’s a complete train wreck. Praying today is better.

                            @hannahmccaffery This happens to me all the time too! It's especially frustrating when I realize I've done lineart on the sketch layer instead of a new layer hahaha

                            @Sara-Hickman I hope it will be, dear!

                                @NessIllustration take this time to rest up. Hopefully you’ll be recharged soon and be able to get the ball rolling again and have your computer sorted out. Wishing you the best!

                                  @nyrrylcadiz Oh when I say crash I meant it froze, and I had to restart it without saving my work 😞 The computer still works (although it does freeze more often these days!)
