Hi everyone. My dad let me borrow his PC for a bit, so I can give you an update about my situation.
As some of you probably remember, I wrote a while back that my Laptop crashed and it might take a few weeks for me to come back.
Today I got the deinate answer: My Laptop is dead. Truly and fully. There is no way to fix it. Which also means that I've lost all my data. And I mean all my data, seeing as I was in the process of organizing everything so that I can make proper backups when it happened. (And I don't want to hear about making backups reguarly; I did have proper backups on an external harddrive that a certain person in my family broke accidently a few days perior.)
I do have a backup CD with my game that's about a month old or two and I should have an other CD with my register files for the XP somewhere. But that's about it. All the recources I collected (and partly paeyd for) over the years, all scripts, demos, files, tools etc... all gone. A lot of which are from sites that don't even exist anymore or where I can't name the site or creator out of my head.
Not to mention all the other programs, files or savefiles I've lost (such as a ~62000 words WIP story I was writing [among others] for example).
And on top of that I'll have to by a new PC and all the equippment that goes with it when I really don't have the money for it right now, seeing as even getting a new external harddrive was something I delayed due it beeing to expencive at the moment.
So... as you can guess I'm not to happy at the moment =/
I might drop by a few times untill I get a new computer of my own, but I don't know.
In any case: take care everybody and make sure you have your files saved and double saved!

If it's funny, make sure people laugh. If it's not funny, make it funny (unless it's actually really serious). (silvercheers)
Please don't spell my name "Yamina-chan". It's all small. Thank you =D
