Backing up question...
With all the organization talk, I have to ask about backing up! I have the hardest time with this! I haven't backed up in a loooooong time. (Which is BAD I know!) I have some stuff backed up but then once I get new stuff, it is all mixed in with the backed up stuff so when I go to back up again I don't know what has been backed up already so I put off backing anything else up. My photos aren't a big deal because I keep them organized by month. Sooo how do you deal with this? Do you just back everything up again and get rid of other discs? Do you keep everything new separate until you back it up? Or....

oooh good question - i have no idea so I'll be watching this thread....I sometimes try to sort them by date and then I have to check to see what's already on the DVD and find where I left off - a total pain.
I wish there was some way to color code the folders or something to show they've been backed up??

When I make backup DVDs I burn everything. I don't mind having dup disks b/c I've gone back to disks only to find that for some reason they no longer work but b/c I make redundant backups I found what I needed on another disk. Probably kind of overkill but it makes me feel better.
I don't know, maybe some sort of sync software would work for this? In Acdsee I was tagging stuff as backed up but I soon gave up on doing that.

There was a good thread about this at DST. I can't find the one I'm thinking of but I've thought about backing up my system on an online service for a fee every month/year. That way if god forbid there's a disaster and I lose the computer and EHD then I'll have my system backed up online and I can access it from anywhere.
Here's the DST thread about online back up.

Hm, I haven't backed at all yet.
I think I'll make a copy of my zipped kits and xcf layouts in another server or something. My burner is broke anyway haha.

Thanks for that thread mikkel. I'm thinking I'm going to use Mozy. For $5 a month it seems well worth it.

That's all it is!?! I just might do that too!! Definitely seems worth it. The peace of mind alone is worth a million bucks!
