That is such a sad and painful story. Because so much feeling is involved in creating a picture it evolves and becomes real, and part of us. To lose it is very hard and for a while feels almost like taking a part of us, the emotion that we have invested in it is gone... And for you it took a wonderful memory of your beloved cat. If leaving the computer on to finish a draft isn't the answer and saving a fairly full picture isn't the answer I guess we just have to allow enough time to finish it in one go. I think this is why i don't do many complicated, time consuming drawings. TD is however great for many different kinds of drawings and the main thing is to enjoy and have fun. Who really cares if a quick, fun drawing only gets 2 votes? |

I also have no advice than crossing fingers when you save a draft... |

Thank you clorophilla for showing me chompersaurus's picture. What an incredible amount of pieces they used. Thanks too Inked-gemini, I have always been impressed with your work which take so many pieces. I am very suprised you've not had many problems saving pieces but as you say maybe it is because of the pallet I'm using. I have sent a message to Rachel about this. It is disappointing as I'd saved a much nicer Mona than the one I had to redo to enter. Never mind, i'm sure these kind of things happen to us all in someway. Thanks for taking the trouble to answer and I hope to see more of your wonderful art on here when you feel inspired! Chrissy |

No apologies necessary clor; I am a ‘she’ however. As far as saving a draft, I have had that problem in the past. It didn’t happen all the time, but occasionally I would save a draft, and, when I would reload it, not all of the picture would load. This happened to me once or twice maybe. But it has not happened to me at all in recent months, and I have saved drafts with a pretty heavy pixel count. I saved a draft of my Santa Claus, and I remember crossing my fingers when I hit the ‘load draft’ button, wondering if it would load the large amount of work I had already put into it. Thankfully it did without any problems. |

Sorry Inked - I wrote "he" but I suspect you are a "she"! |
