Hi :)
Ouch!!  I'm sure we have all been there many times too.  It happens.  

It's sometimes possible  recover the files from odd places like fairly recent 
versions in the wastebin, usb-sticks, emails, other computers, or get lucky 
with something like test-disk or other recovery programs (which almost never 
work anyway).  

I generally find that something that took hours to create initially takes very 
little time 2nd time around because there are vague memories of decisions or 
reasons for decisions.  

Still, i feel your loss!
Regards from
Tom :)

Sorry Guys

I was trying to sort out the problem with installing extensions (the
Template Changer) into LO3.5/LO3.4 and I inadvertently deleted all my
working user guide files and that includes all the graphic files for Impress
Chapters 1 to 5. I forgot to switch off my Dropbox folder, which is where I
keep my backup files, and the uninstallation program I use zapped Dropbox as
well. What makes it even worse is that my back up hard drive was not up to
date.

I will download the copies off the wiki to re-establish a zip archive of the
graphic files.

Very red faced

Peter
