    Well, the good news is I sold a picture on display today. The bad news is that it was stored on a HD on my desktop, which has just died yesterday. I have the 4x5 negative, that means I can re-scan it, but it's a pain in the arse... I know, I know, should've put it on a flash card, a CDrom or an external HD.

    Hey, you've still got the neg. Granted, it's a pain to re-do it, but just think if you'd had a digi file only.

    Film: the ultimate back-up.
