#JustWannaSay
Heartfelt truth, I intended to create a bridge piece between Mermay and Pride Month by drawing a robust selection of cute PRIDE! mermayds. I actually finished the piece and it looked very good for a 2.5-hour midnight work meant to be a little celebrative kickstart.
However, my Corel is a ginormous satchel of the most rancid dicks money can afford, and periodically it will refuse to open the save window and allow me to save my progress. It particularly loves to do this when I’m relatively proud of a piece, it’s a relatively good piece of artwork, and I’ve forgotten to save at least once.
I tried my hardest. I tried regular save, Save As, even Iterative Saves. I condensed all the layers into one image and copied it about 10 times before cutting it to ensure it was copied. Defeated, I closed window. Save? Can’t do shit, so no. Convert to clipboard? Yes, please. ERROR: Could not convert to clipboard. 2.5 hours’ progress, completely lost. I’m getting sick and fucking tired of it and this new software has done nothing but continue to disappoint me. The gotdamned LITE version was more reliable than this. And I’m not the only one having problems with Corel Painter, either.
I’m sorry everyone. I tried. And I’m too frustrated and tired to try again. Hope you had a happy Mermay, and hope you have a good PRIDE.
