Tip: save often!
« on: April 29, 2005, 02:05:21 am »
Lost an evening of work yesterday because of "spontanious reboot".  :(

autosave wasn't really an option - it takes over one minute to save.

either that, or what also happens is that I'm not completely happy with some parts I've drawn, but I'm too far already to correct it. After the crash I got around fixing those things... ...after a lot of grumbling and mumbling (no cursing, there are kids in the house  ;) ).
