<b>- Real World -</b>

Its official, School sucks. Listen to this, We had to write a 3 page essay over the weekend, right. Well, the teacher us we could hand it in over the weekend. So I handed it in this morning. at one o'clock my teacher sends me an email saying that he didn't receive my essay. I was like, okay, I'll just hand it in again. I went to open it up. The fucking thing didn't save! So all my teacher got was a blank file! Its not very often that I save my work as im working on it, but, I think I learned something. SAVE!

Because of my programs always freezing up I save after every line/sentance X/

I never really save until I'm done. But, i've decided to change my saving habits now.

It's a reflex for me to save as soon as i finish typing up like a line of code, or a part of an image, etc. I unwittingly press "Ctrl+S" without thinking. It's really automatic. I even hit ctrl+s by accident once in awhile when making up my blog. =P

It comes to me as an instinct to save. Also, wouldn't a 1-bit game only have 1 colour on screen at a time? Because 8-bit has 8 colours on screen at a time. I don't know though.

@BowsA22 it would have 2 usually black and white

Well, don't quote me on this, but in video game design, black is not a "color". It is just like transparency in photoshop. Its there, but its not a color.
