I'm gonna cry by KitteaMutt

legitimately about to burst into tears

Finally got a program I thought was super cool (ezvid) and decided to stay up and draw something to try it out. I drew and drew and was rrrreeeallllly happy with my results! (SUbmission titled "Shooting Star" if you don't see it, I haven;t uploaded yet.)

I stop the video and wait for it to render and stuff and I find out it only records up to 45 minutes.

I spent over an hour on that drawing.

I was so excited, and I feel so stupid for not checking if there was a time limit first.

I'm tired, I'm stressed out, and I just really feel like a big heap of failure.

I'm just gonna log off and crawl to bed now and try not to cry.... it's almost 4 am and I have to get up in a few hours....

Let this be a lesson to you: Not all screen recorders have an unlimited recording timespan....

I'm gonna cry

    Don't cry :(

    At least you got most of it recorded! You know livestream saves your videos when you stream? Or at least I have mine set up to do that XD It takes up a lot of space but that's what I use to edit my videos (just starting to at least LOL).

    These things happen - you learn to get over them a lot faster as time goes on. When a program crashes and I lose my work, I barely flinch now. It's like 'eh, ok. Do it again'.

    Was there a super big reason as to why you needed to record something or was it just for fun?

      It was just for fun. I've wanted to do a youtube speedpaint for yeeearrrssss and now I had the opportunity and it was squandered.

      I found a new recording device and, even though it takes a lot longer, I got my recording done and edited.

      And I don't think I'd ever be able to get used to losing unsaved work. I tend to get really annoyed and halfass it if I have to do it all over again.

        Trust me, you will. It will always happen, no matter what program or what you're doing. Always remember to save as often as you can :)
