Photoshop actions are the best — they save time and make you more productive during post-processing. They can be used to speed up repetitive tasks, make quick work of time consuming edits, and give you a little creative inspiration . It is also a pre-recorded steps in Photoshop that you can apply on new layers and files.

Photoshop actions help you do your effects more fast and easier. In this post, I collected some amazing actions that I think it is useful in design process workflow.

Instructions: Complete the HDR, convert to 8bit, leave the shot with very low contrast, but with lots of detail, then run the action, then let me see the results

There are 15 actions in total
The End of the Day set (red dots) is prefered for outside pictures.
The Dreary (the ones with green dots) can be used for anything.

Photoshop Actions

some Photoshop actions that we use when we want to “touch up” photographs and add some extra effects.
For each of the actions, I’m going to use a photograph that started life as a 1600 x 1200 photograph shot on a Fuji Finexpix A201. I’ve reduced this down to 960 x 720 pixels to make it a more manageable download.

For photoshop elements 1, 2, and 3, I think this explains it well enough

Photoshop Action: Diabolic

set of 10 photoshop actions .

Skin Smoothing

A simple and individual action to soften some skin.

Cross-Processing ATN

Cross-processing, briefly, is a photographic technique where (usually) slide film (E6) is processed in the set of chemicals usually used to process print film (C41). (Less common is cross-processing in the other direction — print film processed in slide film chemicals) The result is images with oddly skewed colors and increased contrast and saturation.

Eye Color

An individual Action to color some eyes..

How to install the action:

1. Put the .ATN file from the zip in a directory of your choice. It does not need to be in the Photoshop directory.
2. Choose Load Actions from the Actions palette menu.
3. Select the action set file from die directory you saved it.
4. Click Load.
5. Have fun.
