Thank you so much sprauncey1!

Your instructions were working perfectly and easy to follow until I got to the part where you drag the action-named icon onto the original.psd in PSE. It began to perform the action and then I got an error message that says "The object "Backgound" is not currently available."

I'm guessing that this is part of the action that cannot be performed in PSE??

I found an action here that was made for PSE: http://forums.macmerc.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=2029

It didn't have quite the effect I was going for, but it did work.

You can see it on my blog here: Saving Jordan Raine

Thanks for your help.

What action were you trying to run? Try the same proceedures with the Dave's Midnight Sepia action (google it and you'll find it) and see if you get the same error message. I KNOW that that one works.

Yes sometimes if there are multiple steps, etc to an action (which allows PS people to have more control over the final image) then it won't work in PSE. I have found a few that have worked but a lot that haven't.

We really need to compile a list of actions that do work for PSE and keep it as a sticky, or maybe that was already done and I missed it! And buy the way the Atomic cupcake effects (actions that work in PSE) are GREAT! They cost $ but are totally worth it! I have the torn edge one, the chipboard letters one, and the inked edges one so far. I LOVE them! And the installation is even easier than installing an action because they were written from the PSE point of view!
