Ink & Watercolor anyone?

Dave Jaseck said:

I created an action from instructions given by Gregory George on
creating a ink and watercolor effect in PS. It's a fun application
that works nicely on some pictures. If a few people are interested
e-mail me and I'll try to attach the action in a return e-mail. It
was created in PS6 and works now in my PS7. It does need a blur
function called smart blur, so it should work in any version of PS
that has smart blur. And before I get flamed, the picture I used
as an example is not mine and the technique is not mine. It comes
from Gregory George that has a web site and a book out "50
Photoshop Digital Photo Techniques" which has alot of neat effects
(I may not have gotten the title entirely right). I did add one
extra step to his instructions. I must have too much time on my
hands! Dave

I don't think anyone has tried to flame you Dave. I thought I was
the first on earth to discover it worked to use hue/saturation
making the blue lighter to fix snow pics with a heavy blue cast. I
was very happy to discover it and I wanted to tell the whole world
(or at least this forum) about it. Some people tried it and found
it was working well (others were a bit less enthusiastic) and then
someone came along and told me it was common knowledge. But I had
never seen it anywhere and now a lot of people who hadn't seen it
either also got a valuable tip. There are zillions of Photoshop
tips all over the net and elsewhere, but this forum is my
favourite. I have learnt so much here and the tips keep on coming
from generous people like you.
And yes - I would very much like to try your ink & watercolour
action. I have done a lot of ink & watercolour, but not with an
action. I found the technique on the net but I don't follow it
exactly. You always have to make adjustments depending on your
picture - like always.

My e-mail is [email protected] if you would like to send me the
action. Thank you in advance, Dave.

Thank you for your action and I like the fact that it leaves the
layers around so one can tweak them. I ran you on one photo and
without tweaking this is what it produced sized down a bit.

Hi Dave:

Thanks for the "Ink & Watercolor" action, I really like the affect,
now if I only had some artistic ability, I could get fancy when
using the brush to erase hard edges like you suggested. LOL.

Regards,
Dvg
