Spaceship Away (a three times a year, full colour, glossy magazine) started out as a way to get a newly created 1950’s ‘old Eagle’ style Dan Dare strip story it didn’t stop there!

i also bought some blank discs and saving everything.
got to finish off my ganjaman strips,the deadline is the 10th of sept,so i'll finish of those and then start part 2 of the shakes.
Sounds like you've got the same deal going with your computers as I have. Once I get round to it, I plan on just using the laptop for internet, and my other computer for art related stuff. That way the art computer's less likely to get bogged down with virus killers and viruses (although they can still be transfered from computer to computer by memory stick or CD, so it's worth doing a virus scan on your art computer from time to time, and backing stuff up each month)
thanks for the tips though,i'll send you my new addy,as soon as poss, cos i'll need those scripts again
If you can still get to the system restore option, you may also be able to restore the computer to the point before you did the original restore (though if your files were missing before then, this'd probably be pointless).
There may also be a way of locating and copying your missing files from DOS, but I'm not knowledgable enough to know how to do that (otherwise I'd have done it with my own computer, which died and took loads of my old comics with it). In future, a good idea is to back up everything to a CD/DVD (good quality, not cheap ones) each month, and also store duplicates on a Back-up Drive.
Hope some of this might be of help.
