PSE "actions"

I've bought Michelle's Color and lighten action, unzipped it and now am at a loss about what to do????

Can you tell I'm a newbie?

I thought it probably had to be put in one of the Adobe subdirectories but which one?
I did read a message about actions and PSE 5 but Elements 4 does not have a Special Effects subdirectory - or at least not one I can find.

Please, help! I'm anxious to try the actions and hope to order more - after I figure out how to use them of course

Cheers
Jacqueline

Well, in PSE 3 I'd put it in the folder Previews/Effects. Then go to the folder Previews/Cache and delete those files. Then restart PSE. Don't worry the cache files you delete will rebuild themselves.

HTH.

There's a great tutorial in the tutorials section of sbb that can help you install actions--it might help! It's listed under Photoshop Elements/Program Basics. Here's the link:
http://www.scrapbook-bytes.com/cgi-s...icle_384.shtml
Once you install a few actions, you'll be amazed at what you can do!
