so guys, imagine that.

you are a failing animator, looking to improve your skills on a certain gorgeous morning.
you pick up your forgotten tablet, gather what remains of your trampled ego from a dark hole somewhere, and set to work.

after an hour you want to rip your insides out, but you convince self that well, you will have to fail a little before it gets better.

after two hours you are starting to seriously doubt purpose of your own existence, and want to just give up art, drawing, and life forever for the sakes of a heavily vodka induced pity fest.

after about 4 hours of solid work, you start seeing progress, you are actually going somewhere! you proudly review your work, and between little pieces of crap you see glimpses of future, and you start getting those images in your head, of fame and glory, and money to pay rent that was not earned by washing dishes/floor in some god forsaken restaurant.

and then photoshop crashes, and with the sharp, cheerful sound of the Windows' prompt you hear the crash of the sudden realization, that, too busy working, you have somehow, managed to not SAVE YOUR WORK, EVEN ONCE.

FML, lol XD


guys, how is your morning going? i hope that better than mine, lol XD
 
:( Not good at all
 
Somewhat huh.

ah lost work
 
Oh sure it will be
 
aha! i didn't know how you did your work. that is some awesome stuff you've achieved on the computer :)

i never evolved much passed the 'ground stone dust on the cave wall' method :p

sorry to hear about the crash.. i play around on a music program and i know how it can be getting 'zoned' in and forgetting to save.. bollocks.
