I WILL DESTROY YOU COMPUTER

[kungfuwaynewho]

I was working on three icons last night for two different LIMS.  I was spending a lot of time on them.  I had done many many stages of background creation, coloring, textures, etc.  I Photoshopped for about an hour before I got too tired to work and decided to go to bed.  I just left Photoshop open, and it didn't occur to me to save the PSDs.

I didn't have time to get on the computer this morning.

Came home from work, made dinner, reading flist, la dee da, I will finish those icons.  Wait.  Photoshop isn't open.

COMPUTER INSTALLED UPDATES ON ITS OWN AND RESTARTED.  ALL LOST.

Gahhhh! That is the worst! I had my photoshop crash last night but luckily I didn't lose much.
And I've taken to saving my PSD's multiple times when making graphics now because I live in fear of this happening to me!

I usually do save PSDs, just in case, so I think the real lesson here is "don't make icons after midnight when you're so sleepy you can't remember to back things up."
