Actions are some of the most powerful things you can do in Photoshop. Sometimes it may feel it takes you longer to set them up then just to do the action yourself. But patience and virtue will reveal how much time it will save you in the long run.

Veerle gives a nice run down on creating actions in Photoshop.

Adobe Creative Suite fails “catastrophically” thanks to DRM “200801031406
Release 2.0 editor Jimmy Guterman was greeted by this helpful message after he upgraded to the latest version of Adobe Creative suite.

Adobe pushed out an upgrade of its Creative Suite. I installed it, as prompted. This is what happens when I try to run any element of the Suite after the install.

Click on the modal dialog box and the program closes. For extra redundancy, there’s a second error message that reads ‘licensing for this product has stopped working.’ But I am impressed that I wasn’t merely able to get the programs to fail, but that I got them to fail ‘catastrophically.’
