Unfortunately my daughter managed to spill a full cup of coffee all over my laptop yesterday and now it doesn't even start. Total blackout!

I've ordered a new one and hoping I'm able to restore the HDD. On top of everything I was working on the Yuma cover and hadn't saved in almost 3 hours, so that is probably lost. Anyone know if PS stores some kind of backup files which can be restored later on?



Under CS6 there's a kind of automatic back up system that rename the file with "restaured" name in it as 3.10 to yuma "restaured".psd.
the place where it's stored i don't exactly know... after some PS crash it was in the same folder of the file created. (in french it's "récupéré" i don't know the exact English word)

Under CS4 / CS5 i guess, it was recovered under a strange name with .temp file name, the place i don't remember, the size of it usually makes it found quiet easily, if i remember well just rename .psd and that should work partially...

let's also try to make it dry for some days, an if you can open your laptop, try to clean it carefully (if you had not already done it!!)

good luck

Thanks guys and thanks for the explanation and suggestion Skar. It's been drying for a couple of days now but it's not starting. Tried removing the battery as well without luck. I have been able to restore my HDD though and did find a temp-file which might be from the crash :)

I couldn't wait till the new laptop arrived so I've borrowed my mother in law's Dell and installed PS. Need to have something to do this weekend as my old lady is away ;)

The temp-file was corrupted and could not be saved. I've tried to recreate what I had. Couldn't get the layout right so I wanted to try something else. What do you think?

Better! Maybe add some light-wrap on the wood where it is bright behind it so it seems more 3D?

I'm with nike, and i think it's work a lot buddy ! Maybe try to make that the planks are not all equal and add shading to the back of the wooden planks to give a sense of depth between the characters and boards :)
