I wish I would have known that I would be interested in photography (now) when we bought PSE 4 (a while ago, when I was still busy with school). I feel so limited with it. There are a lot of things (photo actions in particular) that won't run on PSE 4 even if they run on PSE 5. It's pretty frustrating. But we can't afford to get anything for a while yet. So...I decided I would just have to figure things out on my own. I was able to get some ideas from Coffee Shop. She has free actions and she also explains how she made some of them. Since I can't use her free actions I have been looking at at her tutorials on how to make them and coming up with something similar, or something with my own twist. Here is what I have come up with so far.

Once again, I am very new to this, but hopefully I am making steps in the right direction. Any comments would be great!




Hey Stephanie! I just noticed via Google analytics that you had put a link to my blog on your blog roll and I wanted to say thank you. How flattering! I hope you have a happy new year, and keep playing with photoshop! I'm still figuring it out, too. Looking great!
