I usually save my image right before loading a new package. If something

several packages, I may use "save as new version" after loading a few
of them so I don't have to reload everything if something goes wrong
on say the sixth package.

Of course it is also a good idea to occasionally save backup copies
of your working image and changes files in a safe place.

Agreed on these points. This is one area Squeak could improve in, I think.
