Awesome actions, but can't use

[djedamrazuk]

OK< I've downloaded a bunch of perfect photoshop actions from DownloadSoho, but for some reason i can't use them. I download them all but I am not sue how to import them in my PS? It doesn't say if I have to install them, or to run them externally. It may be a stupid question but I just want them in my PS. I tried double-clicking thinking that it would install the actions, but when I open my PS I don't see them.

What version of Photoshop do you have and what OS are you using
If it's Windows 64bit and PS CC2015 actions location is here
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2015\Presets\Actions

MAC location
/Users/[user name]Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CC 2015/Presets/Actions

Copy and paste the actions into that folder

You can also install them from here



Click here to get the flyout menu



If you don't see the actions icon on the panel you can load it from here

AWESOME, IT WORKED! I did not know where to look for them, my Actions palette was not open by default. These actions are so good, my old photos look amazing, it's hard to pick which look to use. That's one thing that's kinda depressing with great actions - it's hard to choose the right look when one set of actions have so many of them and they are all so nice. Thanks Gedstar!
