I have been searching for 2 days. I had a binder with ALL of my negatives in the house and now its gone.

Cleaned the house after all the presents were opened and I am sick to my stomach that I can't find them.

I just had to tell someone.... :(

They just have to be around here somewhere.....
 
i feel your pain!

i have lived in 2 houses that had flooded basements and lost all kinds of stuff, makes ya sick for sure.

but your negs might still show up, keep the faith.

Maybe someone moved the binder? There is someone like that in my house - constantly moves everything so I can never find anything. Can't tell you who she is 'cos she may read this... ;)

Hope your binder turns up! :)
 
Thanks all for the good juju!!!!

The wife put them in a bag for Christmas storage! :rolleyes:

Whoo hoo, I will scan some later and post them :D:D:D:D:D

LOL!!!!!

Very, very funny!

The funny thing is that when I headed towards the Christmas stuff yesterday, she said "Hey, they are not in there. I put all the stuff away in there and I KNOW that I didn't put them there. You just miss placed them....":bang:
 
Mine got packed up and moved for the holidays too. I saw them on the pile though and swiped them to ensure their safe keeping.
 
I picked up some Print File negative holders this week and I need to get a binder. Judging by this I'll need one in fluorescent colors or maybe one that glows in the dark... :p
 
I use the hanging slide/negative holders that fit in a file cabinet.
Actually I have them in plastic file cabinets so that they never
get dusty and nothing can spill on them.
 
Peter I think it would help to have a radio responder on the binder... Something anyway that will make it announce its location on demand.
 
No, the wife won't let a neon binder hang around in her home. You have to go low key, and watch it like a hawk.

I got myself a nice big n' heavy retro 70's metal filing cabinet with lock for my negs and photo CDs.
I doubt that would get lost or moved by the girlfriend.

Remember those key chain devices that beeped when you clapped your hands? Sounds like just what is needed. :D
 
Just yesterday, my wife found (she also lost it many years ago and now we are doing a huge cleanup) an album of b&w negatives from 35 to 40 years ago. I had forgotten they existed.
Wives do these things, but what would we do without them?

OOohhhh, I would love to see some of them.....
 
While doing a post-holiday clean up, I turned up four exposed rolls of 120 Tri-X from last Fall that was in one of my gear bags.

Moral of the story is that you can have too many gear bags in the hall closet.
