Preserving Paint Cutouts

Paint cutouts are saved in the Lost_+_Found library on the Paint reel rather than in memory in order to conserve memory. During a session, you must not delete the Paint reel or its cutouts because they will be used when you return to Paint. However, you can safely delete the cutouts once you exit and restart the application because the Paint reel in the Lost_+_Found library is not searched in subsequent sessions.
