I was drawing in lascaux and the Drawing timed out on me or something weird. *(always does this)* So I know if I go back to draw and go to the category I was drawing in and open up a new Lascaux applet with same dimensions it'll bring up the file again but this time I accidently put different dimensions and it only brought up a blank screen. I have a print screen of it if that helps. *would like to finish it* @__@ How do I get back that drawing?

I've seen in the past comments accompanying a drawing that stated that our dear Marcello was able to restore it, with the printscreen. Try memo-ing him.

My drawing timed out, So I went to open up a new applet but I typed in the wrong dimensions and it woudln't pull up the temporary file. So I tried to reopen the applet again with the right dimensions but it wouldn't bring up the temp file. So I lost the image..
I have a link to a .png file I saved of a print screen that I took of it when it timed out and I couldn't reopen a new one. http://i26.tinypic.com/zklwdt.png

what do you mean by "my drawing timed out?" could you be more specific?

hmm. I call it time out because I don't know how else to say it. Sometimes when I'm drawing on my picture. Even when I'm actively drawing on it. It just stops letting me draw. I can erase, I can draw on it but it won't show up . I can even use the undo feature which will work but I can't go forward though even if the steps are there for me to see. If I click on them nothing happens. I can view my drawing but I can't do anything to it so I have to reload the applet or save/submit it and revise again.

ah. you can reload it by just clicking reload on your browser, you don't need to run around to other pages.
that is a bug in lascaux though. do you know what causes it to stop working?

Not really except maybe it has to do with the computers at my work. It only gives me a problem when I'm at work. Not when I'm at home (or least not that i've noticed) I mostly just doodle while bored at work. Would you be able to restore it pretty plz XD *and thx for the great tip! I didn't think about reloading*
