Photoshop Actions

[floochie]

I have several pictures of textures. Instead of opening them and applying them to pictures in Photoshop, I would love to be able to turn them into actions... so that when i open a picture and want to apply a texture.. i can just press a button.

Does anyone know how to do this??

Well, TRA (http://www.gettotallyrad.com/#dirty-pictures-1e8873) has a really fun little interface to use with PS that comes with their Dirty Pictures set... and you can add your own textures or use theirs. It allows you to preview your photo in each set of texture and then adjust the opacity, hit play and then and it conveniently creates a layer mask for you. It is super simple to use too. I can't remember how much it costs, but I thought it was mighty handy.

Julie you can just record the process of doing this to create your own actions. Check out the PS manual or google or youtube for specifics.
