Well I don't know about defirish but I haven't lost anything. It's more a case of I can paste an image successfully, then maybe an hour later if I haven't copied anything in the mean time I can still paste the original image so it obviously hasn't died away through hanging around somewhere in the ether that passes as my hard drive.

So how long can it survive unfed, unused and abandoned as no longer wanted. Poor thing.

Ah I see defirish has actually lost her image which is a far more important issue than my whimsical ponderings.
