death to the 'illegal operation' windows!!!!

adam warlock · 06-03-2002, 11:56 AM

ARGH! I hate those pop-ups on my comp!computer erased it!!!!!!!! completely!
I got a full-sized page colored and ready to shade on my Painter 6 program.
I was saving the page (I do it every few changes I make)...in the .riff format then I got this friggin' 'illegal operation' window that is going to close the painter program... DURING the save!

had no choice...
so I restarted the computer and the entire page only saved the background... all colored background boxes... crap

before I saved it... it had 5 layers and canvas
now it's saved the layer 1 and canvas

whoever invented the 'illegal operation' pop-up should be shot and hung for display

now if you excuse me, *bashes head on wall*

adam warlock · 06-03-2002, 12:08 PM

I'm all for that!

you know what really kicked me in the butt?

I was doing that page for a friend

*sighs* have no choice in that matter but to start all over again

Go to 2K or XP. They are much much better as far as stability is concerned.

XP is slow but more stable
instead of illigal preformence stuff you have to wait 2 houres but it won't crash

XP more stable? I wish!

That's the sort of thing that makes you want to throw a computer out a window.

I sympathise Adame. (a dame...)

What I do is multiple saves every so often, (thisname.riff + thisname2.riff etc) or before I do a radical change. You never know.
