Yes, typo.. lol.. That should be 999.03GB. I've already done it but I'll accept a second slap from you for my slackness and stupidity.

I have a Mac desktop running El Capitan and Photoshop CC. It is under 2 years old, and has 8GB of RAM. Its hard drive has 438.58GB free out of 99.03GB. The last time I shut down was just before posting this three (although before that it was a few days). I run a cleanup program about once a month.

Crisis over! Rebooting has fixed it. Sorry I didn't do that before bothering you!

Noooooo.. lol. I was too scared of trashing the files somehow.. I shall do that now.

The files look like the sort of size I'd expect but the tug previews in a weird colour and not the colours it should be. I'll send you a file now.

At this stage it's just these two. I have one other that was open at the same time that hasn't done it and I just opened a psd I hadn't been working on today and that's fine too.

I've been working on a logo for someone in PS and both of my psd files have turned completely white and I can't work out what on earth has happened or how to fix it. I've tried googling but it keeps coming up with turning it black and white, not just totally white. I tried closing one file and reopening it without saving it first, in case it was a glitch, but it opened completely white. What on earth have I done?????

Yes, I did think he was saying I should shoot from lower and obviously misunderstood that part of what he was saying.

Except the mannequin torso was sitting on the ground, on location, and I shot them together, from the same position and elevation. The perpective is exactly the same on both the ground and the torso.

Thanks for your input. It was shot from lowest my tripod could get to the ground, so I'm not sure what's making you think it was shot from standing height?

Thanks Crystal. I did add shadowing afterwards but was just showing Damien how I ended up creating the hole, as only using shadowing wasn't working.

Yeah, that's why I'm always sure to mention the autofocus not being as good as a lot of DSLRs. I see so many Fuji fan boys posting an action shot that they've nailed with claims that there's nothing wrong with the X-T1's ability to shoot fast moving subjects, but it's always either something moving smoothly and not directly toward the camera or a one off success and they can't provide multiple nailed shots from the same set. I still love it to bits though and hope you fall in love with it too. The Fuji camera profiles are absolutely gorgeous (I mostly use Provia but sometimes Velvia, Astia or Classic Chrome), so make sure you play with them in your raw processing too. :-)

I thought I'd add this since it only just happened and is another awesome reason to use a service like Crashplan. I spent days on an image last week and realised yesterday that I'd stuffed up and when I resized it on Sunday to 1500px x 1500px and flattened it to sharpen it for Facebook, I accidentally saved over the psd and closed the file. I was so upset that I'd lost all of my work and the full sized file and had completely forgotten that Crashplan keeps older versions of files and doesn't just delete them when the file is updated. I was able just now to go in and pick a time just before I flattened and resized it and recover the full size psd with all its layers. I cannot begin to tell you how relieved I am!

I love it but certainly do your research and check out what a lot of other people have to say as well. :-)

It doesn't update the second you adjust a file and save it but it does several updates throughout the day and I'm not at my computer right now to double check but I'm sure you can force it to back up immediately if you've done something like transfer a wedding from your memory card to the computer and don't want to risk even a small lag in time before it gets backed up.
