IE, Safari, and Chrome all have similar methods. If you need help, let me know what browser you're using and I'll try to track down the directions.

:( :( Sorry this happened :( :(
I'm so sorry. When computers work, they are wonderful, and when they don't, well, we feel like this! Do you know or can you find a computer person who would know or might be able to find at least some of you info?

That is why I started saving my links on the free blogs, they will always be there and have them in catergories by labels.
My other computers crashed twice so I learned the hard way, now I save them on the free blogs.
If you need any help finding some of your old links, just send me a private message so I can help you find some of them again.
Also you can use the "my pages" features here on the quilting board site to save the links that I and others post for all of us to enjoy.
I am working on another blog again just for quilting resources, free patterns etc.

I save mine to a cd so if my computer crashes, I still have them. You can also use an external hard drive to back up your files. I have been comtemplating on getting one for a while now. Could you also use a flash drive? I'm not that computer savvy but someone here on this board might know.
