So you have a folder with 100 images in it that need to be resized and have a watermark added. Doing this one at a time would take you all day, but with the use of Actions in Photoshop this repetitive task is as simple as editing one image with just a few extra steps.

Let’s Get Started.

1. Open your actions pallet. If you don’t see it in your window tabs go to Window > Actions

2. Click the, “Create New Actions”, tab. (It’s the one at the bottom that looks like a post it note.) Name your action something that makes sense to you. If you’re resizing images call it something like resize.

3. Once you’ve created your action and named it hit the round record button at the bottom. You’ll know it’s recording your action when it turns red.

4. Apply what ever effects you wish to your images. You will see them recorded in the Actions pallet as you finish with your selections.

5. When you’ve finished adding effects, resizing, adding text, etc to your project hit the stop button at the bottom of the Actions pallet.

How To Batch Process Your Images

6. Go to File > Automate > Batch

7. When the box below will pops up select your action from the drop down list at the top.

8. Choose the folder you wish to batch from the source option.

9. Select the folder where you want these new images to go. Hit ok and go get some coffee. Depending on the size and difficulty of your action these images should be batched in no time.

I got a lot of response from my last post so I decided to post a few more pictures of Michigan in the winter time. This has been a particularly snowy year for us here. We got over 14 inches on new years and it doesn’t seem to be letting up.

These shots are from my ride home yesterday. This is why people from the midwest drive big trucks. I have no idea what’s wrong with me.

I got this tattoo a couple years ago in Taiwan. The Koi is a symbol of prosperity. Plus I think it turned out pretty bitchin looking. I thought it a good souvenir from Taiwan.
