From the Author Readers should be sure to check out the Actions on the CD!Hello - I just wanted to encourage readers who buy the book to check out the Wow! Actions (in the Wow! Goodies folder on the CD-ROM). Jack has come up with more than 60 "one-click" macros for painterly and photographic effects, as well as graphics special effects for bevels, carving, chrome, crystal, brushed steel, drop and cast shadows, and so on. And with the comping photos provided by PhotoDisc, you can run each Action on the appropriate photo, compare the result to the poster of examples that's bound into the back of the book, and then dissect the finished file. We've left the files with layers, Adjustment layers, masks, and channels intact, so you can see how the effect is accomplished. The Actions can of course be applied to your own files - singly or in batches. "Stop" steps in the Actions guide you in making entries in dialog boxes for the Action steps. So you can change filter and other settings - for instance, if you want a stronger effect, or if your file is significantly larger or smaller than the sample. So don't forget to check out the Actions! --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
