Don't bother the techs. Seriously, don't. I'm not entirely sure what's going on but all I'm getting is that it's the equivalent of being hacked and someone who knows layer theory better than we do is out there screwing things up and tampering with the project. I don't have a really good update for you guys, but bear with us. Please?

Photoshop?

[Is. Is that what they mean by layers.]

[beneathmoonlight]

I wish that was all it was.

[strawberrypunch]

Its like they erased layers though

And were painting them back

[beneathmoonlight]

I suppose it’s kind of the same.

I hate to think we’re all just part of some computer program.

[sketchythief]

i think he means something like firewall layers...

[strawberrypunch]

Firewall?

[He... thiiiiiinks that's an antivirus thing, isn't it.

What are computers.]

[sketchythief]

[ right......... ]

yeah! basically a firewall is there to protect your computer from bad stuff coming in

and hacking is getting through that wall i think...

[akatatai]

Right?
That was my first thought too
If only it was as easy as changing which layers are visible

[strawberrypunch]

Its like when you delete a layer

And you have to repaint it

[Because... you ran out of control+z... or maybe you just put it all on one layer and messed it up too badly to salvage. Yeah, something like that.]

[akatatai]

Is the color actually GONE though, or is there a way we could set it to multiply?

[unlightmusic]

Ah! That makes sense, with all the sketchy-sketchy lines and the paint and stuff!
But what does that mean???

[strawberrypunch]

Someone deleted the lines and color layers

[unlightmusic]

So
We're some clumsy artist's drawing or soemthing????????

[admiringly]

i wish....
i wish we could ctrl+z everything they've done in the past month!

[strawberrypunch]

Not the other changes too?

[admiringly]

?
most of the other changes have already been undone!

[thisloveisjustice]

if only it was that simple! like, what happened last month? did someone select+all and paintbucket with white?

[strawberrypunch]

Or they hacked in and deleted the line art and colors

[thisloveisjustice]

so maybe they deleted layers then?

[deathboss]

That was my thought last month. But it's definitely not that.

[strawberrypunch]

Oh

How did you find out?

[deathboss]

Someone told me. I didn't know about the whole layer thing until last month.

[thesettingsun]

Photoshop doesn't normally screw up real life, except when people photoshop pictures of models and set unrealistic standards for beauty.

[strawberrypunch]

People dont usually hack reality

[thesettingsun]

Touche.

In that case, I don't know what to tell you.
