My display calibration file got corrupted mid-project yesterday and I spent 2 hours redoing it before realizing my tablet wasn't even synced
The weird part is I had to redo all my color swatches from scratch on a new profile, has anyone else had their digital art setup completely sabotage a deadline like that?

Oh man, I feel you on the "color swatches from scratch" pain. A similar thing happened to me when my monitor profile got fried during a logo revision, and I spent a whole afternoon matching colors by eyeballing it before I realized my pen pressure curve was also reset. Nothing like redoing work you already did to make you question every life choice that led to that moment.

My Adobe crashed mid-save once and wiped my custom swatch library with 47 colors I'd matched to a client's physical brochure. Now I export swatches as a .ASE file to Dropbox every time I add more than 5 colors.
