Fuck dropbox
12 years ago
General
So... I use two computers to work on my art. My desktop and my tablet PC.
I use dropbox to connect my files easily. I only use the free version so I reach the limit pretty often.
For a few days I worked on one of the images for the art cd on my tablet while the box was full. I went to work on another image on my desktop and after it was finished, I wanted to work on my old file, so I cleared out a bunch of files from the folder out of my desk top.
This was a bad decision... apparently because the box was full on my Tablet PC, the file was never registered as being saved, so dropbox thought the old ass file on my desktop was the most recent.
This gave me all the rage, as not even a restorable version in their restore bin was there with the newest file I had created... hours of work gone...
god mother fucking damn it...
*sigh* I'm not going to be getting any sleep for the next few weeks... why couldn't I have learned of this issue with drop box months ago instead of a few weeks before Anthrocon?

Why not register for another dropbox with a different email address? I know it doesn't fix this problem, but at least future problems would be less likely.
No idea if it'd work, but it might be worth a try.
