Extremely devastated for all of my sweet Cartoon Network friends who were only trying to make beautiful and hilarious stories and share them with the world. I spent last night watching their shows and my own before they disappear. This can't be the way.

Let it be known that if you are a POC creator in the studio system and you have any modicum of insecurity about being a weird culture halfling growing up, it will be multiplied ONE THOUSAND FOLD if you go into development and you make a show based on your own experiences.

For FILE SIZE, there's a similar thing I recently learned from Toonboom themselves at a learning seminar. If you go to File>Project Management>Extract and select ALL scenes then extract, it will create a new file and like this trick will pull over only your panels/notes
