I'm just glad it was ONLY the memory when she stepped on the power strip. I was like "OH MY GOD, IT WON'T POST! WHAT DID YOU DO!? IS THIS REVENGE BECAUSE I NAMED YOU 'DIVX'!?"

So I was looking at the diagnostic LEDS as it tried to boot, it was apparently failing at them memory check. I borrowed some RAM and it was working agian. I havn't replaced it yet but this month my tax return will cover a whole 2GB of memory baby. :3

But it could have been so much worse. If she had killed the proc or the motherboard or both I think I would have died.

Targa)
Targa files support alpha channel data.

Your applications just suck.

Stupidest mistake... hmm... my latest video... I got everything done, and for the credits, I decided to just use simple fading of images of typed letters (because the in-built text overlays of my editor suck), and all the credits and special thanks and all were done... and then I realised I forgot to put my name in there somewhere... meh... As you can see, my mistakes aren't very stupid at all :lol:

Editing a portion of a video with fansubs to see if my idea would work, then editing the video once I got the dvds only to find I forgot to deinterlace well into my editing. On the third time editing everything was perfect...

There was that one time where I edited an entire video at 11.988 FPS and failed to realize it until I was halfway done.

And then I decided that actually fixing the issue was too much effort, and just worked with it. It looks hella choppy, but it compresses nice!

Accidentally reformat my harddrive in a DOS6 setup to dual boot with Win98. Didn't realize dos couldn't detect more than 2gig capacity.

Lost 2 video & last ever copy of Premiere4

Tried to force a video, heh.
