With the main computer down and all the back-up discs badly labelled, I figured I must have a lot of scanned work on the laptop, but nope. <br /><br />What I'm going to do, without fail now, is burn the artwork to disc every 2 to 4 weeks and label it by date.<br /><br />My word verification is FOCKOP; you can't make this stuff up.Rod McKiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15322224888246015883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12581147.post-12297921203197298012009-05-07T16:20:00.000+00:002009-05-07T16:20:00.000+00:00I bought an external HD a few months ago, so now I...I bought an external HD a few months ago, so now I keep all my cartoons on there. Whenever I change locations (from school to home, from home to school, etc.) I just take the HD with me and no issues.<br /><br />Mike, I know what you mean... My personal computer is a 6-year-old HP desktop, and it's still running so well that I'm hesitant to replace it. The key, I have found, is to add additional memory and other components, and to not allow anyone else to use it.Greghttp://www.eeight.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12581147.post-19913860780460476662009-05-07T15:03:00.000+00:002009-05-07T15:03:00.000+00:00I think we'll have to start illustrating the word ...I think we'll have to start illustrating the word verifications Mike. Retchiol has to be some sort of craeture, or a dry heave. <br /><br />Mine is ewedow, it has to be something you yell when an apendage gets caught in a pasta machine.Rod McKiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15322224888246015883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12581147.post-65067441825882269452009-05-07T13:12:00.000+00:002009-05-07T13:12:00.000+00:00My secret shame is that I have some cartoons that ...My secret shame is that I have some cartoons that are essentially locked up in a 10 year old CPU that, from time to time, I have to try to start up and import via email to myself. I always feel like Woody Allen in SLEEPER: happily amazed that the Jurassic PC still can be fired up after all these years.<br /><br />Yes, Rod, I miss the paper & pencil days!<br /><br />My secret word verification for this post: retchiolMike Lynchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06589354018554341768noreply@blogger.com
