Hooray for backups!

I just looked through my backups, and it seems that I didn't lose all my sim photos, afterall. *insert huge grin here* I'm so glad that I've been backing up my files regularly (I recently bought an external hard drive to make it impossibly easy to do so, so I'd have no excuse). The whole Sims 2 folder was there, but it only contained personal data files, so that doesn't help me with the downloads (those folders only have some of the read-me files and images), but the storytelling folder had all of the image files intact. Hooray!





He seems pretty happy about it, doesn't? Well, happy for Frances... he still looks a little concerned, even during a moment like that. Oh, dear fretful Frances.

I'm pleased. I could have re-shot this, sure, but I had some nice pics taken, so I'm glad I can use those. I also get a second chance to shoot the scene, for extra pics, since this event happened post-FT. It will be fun to relive it.

Hooray, hooray! Backups are nice, aren't they?

Awww. I'm glad Frances found some love and am looking forward to see who the object of his affections is.

Aw, Frances' worried happy face is so cute! It makes me smile. I can't wait to see who he'll be falling for.

I'm placing a bet on Beau Broke for some odd reason. XD

That is exactly what I was thinking! Great minds think alike! :P

I've been thinking the same thing. There was the coffee shop scene, and Lucy's portrait of Beau... yeah. ^_^

Yay I'm glad more was backed up than what you thought! Bet that was a nice surprise. And here's to your computer behaving itself from now on, lol!

Frances smiling, and hearts?!?! YOU TEASE YOU!!!

I'm glad you were at least able to salvage the pics. I demand lots of awkward Frances!!!!!

*facepalm* I completely forgot about my external when I was backing my game up this weekend. *pissed because it took all day Sat. to burn to disc*

I'm glad your pictures are safe. Horray for frequent backups!
