If your new actions and old are all showing up correctly, you can go ahead and delete the old database. But you don't have to. You’re welcome!

The button with the horizontal lines will give you the option to show the names of the actions.

Just today I had my mind moving toward the need to advance beyond PSE 6, but man, I really like it and don't want to switch. I was so grateful to find your site and information. I do have a question... I'm on a PC and am having a hard time tracking where the downloaded actions go... If I go under C:/Program Files/Adobe/Photoshop Elements 6.0, I can't find any folders with .atn files. Do I just drop the actions in the Effects folder (C:/Program Files/Adobe/Photoshop Elements 6.0/Plug-Ins/Effects)? Thanks in advance for your help!

I think I found one a while ago with some Photoshop CS3 actions.. but only a handful worked w/ PSE. So I didnt download many... maybe got one or two to work. I didnt save the site though :-\ Rite is coming out with a lot more actions. She rocks! If you have spare change give her a few bucks via paypal. I did the other day. The money goes towards her childrens college fund. I think if she gets a few payments here and there from fans then she'll make more :-) Hi, I wish I did… but I dont.

I came across this site while trying to figure out why I am not able to apply certain effects to my pictures. when I click on different effects such as accented edges, it will pop up "The command accented edges is not currently available". I am now using elements 6 on a mac, but before this I had elements 3 on my pc and never had this happen. You said feel free to ask any questions, so I thought I would take you up on that and see if there is something simple that I have been not understanding with this program. The pictures on your site are adorable and I look forward to trying out the actions you suggested. Thanks, Lyn Hi,
