so distraught, sad right now.
weakening at the bowels even. no, not really, just butterflies in my bowels. it's usually these time of the year that an onslaught of something awful usually tides mine meager life asunder, spraying ever the titling spittle at the face with putrid disgust, of things -- pain, of things shitty. and today -- she appeared. shit faced and needing to inflict pain.
the gloriously magnanimous miss misfortune. oh grovel at her feet was i reduced after i realized what i had done.
last year, it was the car accident.
previous year ere, it was some duchebag threatening to shoot me with his modded 9mm glock.
this year. i deleted all of my fucking DRAWINGS through manga studio. though not as life shatteringly tragic -- yet still a very much soul shattering affair. like being told you aren't pregnant, yet you still have stds.
i admit, ever since december hit -- i postponed the project over and over until its relevance was but a mite askance of a muzzled light lingering o'er reminiscence of 2010's accomplishments. then january came, i became yet again rejuvenated. to a degree. sure i didn't post much here, but i tell you, i was working at it.
this month, more so than the last -- i had a story arc going, i edited and re-edited previous pages to make e'm better. i even bought the fucking software, MANGA STUDIO, just so to rid any ill-mannered misfortunes that may succumb a would be e-pirate that's taking advantages of his/her spoils.
but fear naught, the fucking karma came back to me, and succumbeth, ye MIGHTY i was reduced. prolly through all the months i've been using manga studio ex without paying for it.
for today. opened my story files, decided to change the DPI from 720 dpi, to 1200 dpi. to make it look stylish or summat if ever i get to print these fuckers out, and to let my layer 80L tones stand out when exported to jpegs. in other words -- i was just fucking around, fuck i know it was gonna erase all of my 15 pages i already had.... so, casually i thought nothing of it, even paying no heed to the warning: that to convert dpis is to erase all your work -- you need to backup shit, pronto. I figure, why do i needs to, if i just close the software and not SAVE.
WRONG. the software saves automatically. smith and micro told me there is no way to revert the story files. what wounds may have been will be scars tomorrow.
oh ain't i poetic amidst tragedy.
now all the fucking shit are gone. except for the pages I posted in deviantart/voodoochili.
they're jpegs, and be IMPORTED back into manga studio, but with a lot of work -- cuz most of their panels and materials are gone, it's not CPG files, but jpegs.
I... yeh. i iz a dumb ass.
EDIT: I MANAGE TO SALVAGE 4 PAGES. yay! i lost 30 hours because of this shit. nay!
