Gary fongs action

thats ok ..
I only posted a sample .. I have many of these
including the single steps .. just dont bother
to document them.. the ones I posted is a basis
to make your own actions .. I will post a few more
some time .. I am after automation .. control means
time .. time is precious for me ..

Have fun

It's okay and fast but I like the control that I get with the one I
am using I can put the photos where I want them and I can delete
the ones that don't look good and I can use a back ground image, I
like to have control in this automated world we live in today, But
thats just my opinion
 
There is total control in Wing88's action. Its in the last step where it asks if you want the program to set up the page automatically or cancel and do it manually. I selected cancel the second time and it allowed me to put the pictures on the page anywhere I wanted to.

You are right about the background though. I put the background in myself after the program was finished.

Good program, and the price was incredible! I received the action from Gary Fong and will check that out as well. Thanks to both Peter and Wing88 for the great stuff. Ken
 
Can anyone tell me if there is a way to use these actions in Photoshop Elements please? The collage one is just what I am looking for. Thanks

Don't think PSE can do actions, but I'm not 100% sure.

Photoshop is a much more valuable tool than anything else in your digital photography kit imho, spring for it :)

Hi Peter,

It looks very good, I possibly would not have overlayed some of the shots quite as much as you did but none the less it look great!

Time & Images share one common basis. In a moment they're gone!
Capture the moment!

Yes, it can be done but it might take a little reading, digging, etc. on your part. Start here:

Read that thread and it may lead to others - it's been a while so I can't remember for sure.

After that, do a search in the Retouching Forum on "Photoshop Elements Actions" and you should find the details on how you can indeed use actions in PSE.

Hello Wing88

Please explain how we play the action. Thanks.

I use several variations ... just extracted some
of my actions and made a basic one so you see
the 6concept .. you can do your own by making
those basic steps like Fong .. but I dont like that
too slow for me ..

For above action you just take 9 of your S2 images
12MP, open them in Photoshop and play the action ..
New Collage .. it will create a new document A3 in
300 dpi and will load your pics with a white photoframe
as individual layers .. then you can manually place them
or let the cation continue and you get the idea ..
manual fine tuning is necessary .. I have several
versions for different purposes and placements ...
you can also add other frame actions .. I have a couple
of dozend of those .. just replace the subaction ...

Have fun

I still cant believe he is charging $99 for this ...
If I am really mad next week I just do the same as his ...
what a joke .. 730 minutes max to finish that ...
guys dont waste your money ...
Have fun
gmd

PS: when I find a few minutes I will post it on a server
just processing some 1500 images from todays shoot
wildwater rafting on the Avon ..
Peter, will it print 13 x 19? I like the idea and it will make a
really good way to present pictures to clients. I would think a
must have for wedding photographers. From lookin at the website,
it looks easy to use. I don't mind paying for something that
someone spent many hours to create. Anything less is simply
stealing. Ken (PS I ordered one already, but it didn't say
anything about picture size.) The website is:

Sorry I didn't phrase my questions correctly. I actually already use the actions which have been converted for PSE by the various kind people on this forum which is why I am keen on this one. I was wondering whether anybody had converted this one yet? I know that it is possible to do it yourself but I don't have the expertise.
Thank you for the kind responses.
