Stickies problems

This also is a problem that has been annoying me -- how come every once in a while, all of my stickies will be destroyed and the notes will revert back to their default ones (the ones explaining how to use this version of Stickies for OS X). It seems that every time I reset the PRAM, my Sticky notes get tossed. Anyone else notice this? If not, where can I find the Stickies database so I can back them up?

Welcome to Stickies

This is a Mac OS X implementation of the popular Classic Mac OS Stickies application.

Stickies lets you write notes (like these) and stick them on your screen. You can use Stickies to jot quick notes , to write reminders , or to store frequently used text. Your notes are visible whenever the Stickies program is active.

This version has the following enhancements over the Classic Mac OS version

Styled text, bold, italic, color, fontand graphics
Notes of unlimited size
Find text in single note or across multiple notes
Access to standard services for functions such as spell check
"Make Sticky" service allows you create a note from selected text in other apps





Heh...I don't use stickies much, but once in a while I open it and I get this text.
I just did, and this is what showed up!

That's weird they'd disappear like that...the file holding the notes is /Users/username/Library/.StickiesDatabase
