Sorry to bother you busy folkes! From a little maiden in distress!!! Just do this for a hobby so not very skilled like you wonderful people!
I have just done a project in PS CS3 and silly me didn't save it, kicked the plug by accident and now lost the whole lot! AAAGGGHHH!!! 
I have heard about Scratch Discs and was wondering - well hoping actually! - that this wonderful scratch disc might have saved my work for me - any remote chance - hope hope hope!!!!!
Any ideas? Of course I am expecting the answer to be no!!! But there is this tiny twinkling glimmer or hope that I am clutching to!
Yours hopingly!!!

There is software available that will retrieve files from the hard disc after deletion and some are free, just Google. Whether it would work in your case, I don't know, but what do you have to lose? |

Oh Hawkeye thank you thank you thank you! You are so kind!
I will go try that now!
I might be back with another query one day as I have just found this place. Thanks so much again!
Have a wonderful Christmas!

Did you designate a 'scratch disk'? If not, you're using your primary disk as your scratch disk. Also, the scratch disk doesn't save anything..it's a temporary place that PS uses to work from. I believe that once you're done using it, everything goes away. ( you should get into the habit of saving throughout a project. Many, many times.
