^__^ It makes me happy that this game started all these comments. The crash of this particular hard drive happend years ago. So, it doesn’t pain me. I was able to recover a lot of the images. Just some of the RAW files were lost—which isn’t too bad, considering I do have the JPGs of most of them.
But the shock back then was pretty big. There are also quite a lot of files that I was able to recover, but would need to edit. And that task was too much at some point, so some images are still not fixed. Having photography as a hobby you accumulate so many pictures. If someone wanted to go through them all it would take so much time. I only do it from time to time, and only certain time frames (mostly to look for a specific motive), and that is really nostalgic and neat. So, I guess I’m still glad I have so many of them. But, I do feel like a hoarder a bit >.<
Whenever I come back to this game to read comments, I’m reminded that I should make a backup. The gaps between them are still pretty large <.<
