I have never before used the feature in the game to write stories (I don't upload to the exchange and I write my stories on my own fansite) and I tried it this week. I enjoyed it because it was easy. I'm not a writer by any means but I liked that it helped me to organize and keep up with my new Legacy family. I did not upload the story. The computer with the game on it is not online. When I exited the game, though, and went back into it the story was gone and the pictures were not available to start over. I learned later that I had deleted the story file. I always delete caches and the web entries and that stuff and do a disk cleanup (so they are not in the recycle bin anymore) before I load the game. The pictures from that story are still in the folder in the neighborhood folder i My Documents but they don't show up when I'm in the lot and trying to write a story. Is there any way to make them useable again? I don't want to upload a story but just to use this feature to make sort of an outline of the story so I can write it later. Thank you!
