The quick and simple answer is never. Else learn the hard way, like I just did after a mornings worth of creativity.
Now I have lost 3 hours worth of adminsitrative pages design, its lunchtime and I am very annoyed.
So in conclusion always SAVE your Adobe Photoshop work, save drafts, save to different locations, just always save.
Oh and before I go, always make a backup or check what you are deleting when tidying your desktop. I lost more work then!
]]>If you know me well, then you will know that I help out as a leader at a youth event for Christian and non Christian young people in a somewhat less well off area of Chelmsford, and event called The One Event.
We play loud music, games and generally have fun, with some teaching about Christianity thrown in, as we are part of a church in the area.
My problem came about when I moved my music onto a shared hard drive in my house, freeing up valuable disk space on my mac. I figured as all my music was on my iPod I could use that instead to play a playlist off each week at the event. It worked fine, but iPods do not have the functionality of crossfading music.The result, a horrible pause in between songs.I did not want this gap in my iPod music, so I went on the hunt for solutions. I couldn't find any. Until that is, when I changed my search a few days later, to playing music from my iPod through my computer. Here is how.
Simply connect your iPod to your itunes enabled PC, and click manually manage music, that way when the iPod is connected to your iTunes it won't delete your music when iTunes cannot find your library because its miles away on an irremovable hard disk plugged into your network.
You get all the same functionality you get from you mac, including crossfade. Super. And if you use Apple Lossless Encoding, you do not get any jumps or loss in music quality when playing through multiple sources.

]]>In a lame effort to gain recognition for my blog posts, I'll now be posting to many of my blogs which in the last few days I have set up.
Ill also soon be styling them, as many of them are the standard themes and layouts. Unfortunate. So it looks like I have my work set out for the next few days, trying to come up with variations on my latest Media By theme.
Hope you like them when they come online. Oh and ill also be adding to Technorati and other social bookmarking tools!
]]>So I have just got out of bed, quickly tidied the flat as it was a mess in the lounge, emptied the drying rack, have a stack of ironing to do, its raining, and very miserable outside, I have a shopping list to get, I must collect my house keys from the estate agents, make dinner, oh and find my wife something nice to nibble on for when she goes to work on her night shift at the hospital.
What am I to do? I dont feel like doing much, the weather is awful.
I guess I shall start by finishing this blog post and jumping into the shower.
Thanks for joining me, reading this dribble, bye.
