in my situation, it wasn't really feasible to save as i would have missed the "next shot" (of course in retrospect, it would have been better to miss a shot than to lose everything ...) i understand you want to keep your software snappy (or people won't want to use it), so how about implementing auto-save as a nondefault option? with a warning about the performance lag?

I have read several threads indicating that there is no hope of recovering unsaved files. Is there any plan to address this? My scenario: I was having a Skype conversation with an important overseas friend. I was taking numerous screenshots and pasting them into Skype as the conversation progressed. I did not really have time to save each file as I pasted. During this process, my computer crashed and I lost dozens of irreplaceable photos (since it was real-time, those moments will never occur again). Is there a good reason why paint.net ONLY stores images to working memory, and cannot also save to a temporary file? An autosave feature seems like it would be a lifesaver for many people here.
