- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
I am in tears right now, and I feel like I'm going to be sick!!! =(
I just inadvertantly managed to loose EVERY SINGLE file and photograph I've done in the past two months!!! They aren't in the "recycle bin" on my PC, and they are nowhere to be found in the pictures gallery. My husband says worst case scenario I've also lost important .exe's and program files needed just for running the machine, and he will take a look after work!!!! I had just picked up a stack of writable DvD's to begin backing up all my photo files, starting this evening.. but I wasn't soon enough!!!
Thank GOODNESS I haven't gone into buisiness yet, or I would have some pretty angry customers!!! But I feel sick because I still had files to burn to a photo CD for my good friend whom I had just done a free shoot for her 6 month old baby boy! Now I cannot give her the orignal copies and all she has are the compressed, watermarked files off my facebook page!!! =( I called immediately to apologize and she seemed to understand, but I FEEL TERRIBLE!!! =(
So I'm venting to all of you from on my old macbook, with a WARNING to other new photographers!!!! ALWAYS ALWAYS back up your photos on a CD or something the MINUTE you get them off the camera!!! ale::cry::cry::cry:
