OH YEAH!  Photoshop has this great feature called Actions.  Basically, you can record a series of steps, provide for some user input, and save it as a little program.  A macro if you will.  I’ve been using Actions in Photoshop for years and years.  One of my favorite uses for them is to prepare images for use in video.  When I’m doing a video slide show and have say, 100+ images to import, it’s far easier to record an action that sizes them all appropriately, does a little increase in the saturation and sharpens a bit, instead of having to open each image and do it by hand. Actions are part of my Photoshop arsenal that I’d never want to be without.  (Be looking for a tutorial on using actions in the near future )

Steven Snell over at Designm.ag has composed this list of 66 Actions that are sure to help you turn your ordinary photos and snap shots into amazing works of art.  For example:

These actions return amazing results.  I’m going to be playing with them shortly and will post you my results.  Lets try something.  Why don’t you try some and post your results in the comment section.  I’d love to see how your work turns out.   You can read the full article and get all 66 Actions right here…
