You mentioned this happens "intermittently". This sounds more like either a cache problem, an internet connection problem, or a hosting source (the site where the images are hosted) problem. Unless, when you say "the work I had done", you mean the actual props themselves and not just the textures on the props. If the entire prop is disappears, then it's more likely just a cache problem, which you should be able to fix by running a Repair to wipe your cache.

Out of curiosity can you explain where the 700 - 800 props comes into the equation ?
Once upon a time, in a virtual land, virtually far far away... there was known to exist a beast. This beast would plague decorators from time to time, stealing their work and making their lives a nightmare. It was soon decided that this beast should have a name. And thus is was dubbed "the prop limit". It was so named because the rules of the land at the time prevented the developmental growth beyond a certain point. Try as they might, decorators, builders and dabblers alike could not defeat this beast. It would attack at random and without warning. And any who dared grow their lands beyond a certain size found themselves in danger of attack.
As time went on, this beast grew stronger, attacking more and more often. Before long, it became such a common place thing that all who would practice the art of decorating knew... you simply did not go beyond the limits of props, lest you incur the beast's wrath and suffer at its mighty claws.
But, unbeknownst to the common folk of the world, the great gnomes and tinkerers who dwelt far beneath the surface had also learned of this beasts existence. But for them, this foul creature was given a different name. It was known by a single syllable word, often heard uttered as a 'grunt' or 'grown' in the lands beneath the world. And this word was "bug", though sometimes referred to as "error".
Now that these wondrous tinkerers had given the beast a name, they set their sights on learning its true nature and destroying it once and for all. And so it was that new magicks were woven, new tools were forged, and in the silence far below the world of the common man, the mighty beast was finally slain.
Over time, news of this spread across the land. But the great rumors of the beast had become so ingrained in the minds and daily practices of decorators and builders, that most of them feared it had not truly died, but had simply had its claws trimmed and its mighty reach curtailed. They believed, as many did, that the beast would forever exist but that the limits of growth had just been expanded to prevent the beast from returning as often.
And so it went, generation after generation. Stories were past down as new decorators were born into this world. And as often happens with stories, the tale of the great beast changed, mutating wildly depending on the teller of the tale. And to this very day, some still believe that this vile "prop limit beast" yet lives, sleeping beneath the surface, occasionally waking to torment those who would dare to push the boundaries of the world.
I, myself, have never seen such a beast in all my years. But I too have heard the tales told by many. And each time it is told, the story varies just a little. I have pushed hard at these supposed boundaries and limits. I have tempted fate time and again, thumbing my nose at the foretold dangers. And as yet the beast, if it truly still exists, has nary once raised a claw nor fang in response.
Does the beast which once fed upon unwary decorators still exist? Perhaps it does, perhaps not. No one is truly certain. But the one thing most can agree upon, is that if there is still such a beast, nobody really knows for sure what magical prop number will bring it from its slumber.
