Uggh.... that moment when...
you are working on a page and grab an element and then decide to close pieces you already used and you don't save (if prompted) because you don't want to make changes to the pieces in the kit ONLY to realized what you really said you didn't want to save was the page you just spent 20 minutes working on and lost all your progress......
This ever happen to anyone else?? **Hoping this is just me working out my own technical difficulties before the week-end! LOL**

Ouch! Sorry to hear... and I can relate.
I usually Ctrl-S quite regularly while I'm working on a page but there are times my computer plays up and/or Photoshop crashes and I lose some work. I also make a copy of the kit I want to use and put it into a 'Scrap supplies in use' folder, then work from that rather than the original. I then delete the copy when I'm finished the page - that way I know I will never accidentally delete or change any item in the kit.

sad to say... all the time... one would think I would learn to save as I go along, but I still haven't learned that lesson....

Those are great tips!! I have never saved over a piece *knock on wood*, but I can see how making the copy of the kit would be a good safety net while scrapping.
Normally I save as I go, this was only 4 pieces so I hadn't gotten to the moment where I felt I "needed to save" yet... it was just a hard 4 pieces to get lined up juuuuuuuuuuuuust right. Soooo, I have put the idea in the back of my head and have moved on to a different page... because I am not attempting that again any time soon. lol

This is me... every time it happens I say, "I'm going to save save save!" and alas, I never do!

I've done this enough times that I am now paranoid and save my work like every 10 minutes or so.

I haven't done that (knock on wood) but long ago, when I was new to digi-scrapping, I accidentally saved over the original version after having resized it as a web version, and I didn't notice until it was too late. I hadn't made a printable version yet, either. I was so sad. But ever since then, I've been pretty good at hitting Cmd-S frequently while I scrap and remembering to not save web versions over originals!

OMG that happens to me so often and I never learn still! Even if ps asks me 'do you want to save...' I will still click no and think what that was before realizing it was the layout...

I think I did that last week... at least I only lost about 5 minutes of work though. I try to LOOK at that message, see what it's asking but sometimes habit creeps in and you hit no without SEEING what.

I totally feel your frustrations!
I love Kim's tip of copying the kit in use so as not to save edits to the files! (Been there, done that, too many times to count!). I've also saved my layout to web-size, and then closed without reverting back to print size with no way of going back to it. Grrr!

My mistake was clearly human error so I take all the blame.... Still frustrating though. Oh and have I mentioned I turned off the auto save feature because it was becoming a pain in the butt?? LoL oh silly human, when will you learn? 😜
