Ugh! Photoshop help please!

[tripperfunster]

I have a psd file that I use as a mastersheet for the comic I'm making. It has everyone's skin tones, tony's shiny arc reactor and the comic panel frames all on different layes.

A couple of days ago I fat-fingered something and the file disappeared. I can still access it in photoshop, and 'open' it, except it doesn't show up. I can see it in the little history/actions window in the top right corner, but I can't get it to open on the actual page. *pulls out hair*

Any thoughts? I REALLY don't want to have to start some of this shit from scratch.

thanks in advance

edit: Okay, I fixed the problem by opening it in a different ps (elements), changing the file slightly, then saving it under a different name. But I am still interested to hear wtf I did, and how it could be fixed. I'm using psCS3 btw.

MOAR edit: fixed now and I am embarassed at how stoopid I am. Thanks Mierrona! <3

If you're on a Mac, delete your preferences file for Photoshop. :) You can also try Preferences -> Interface -> Restore Default Workspaces. (I have CS6, so ymmv where that is).

That should work, but then again, it is Adobe...

Thanks for the suggestion! Unfortunately it didn't work. It's possible the fault is not with photoshop but windows, which is messed up too. Tbh it's just easier to remember not to minimize stuff instead of trying to find out what's wrong ;)
