Here you will find a collection of FAQ's put together to help you when using our actions.
How will I receive my actions?
Your actions will be received as digital downloads. Once you have completed the checkout process, you will be directed to a link where your actions will be downloadable immediately.
You will also receive an email with a link where your files will be available for download for 24 hours. Please ensure that you do download these within 24 hours, as your link will be time limited.
How do i install actionS?
Please be aware that actions can only be used in Photoshop, so please do not purchase them if you do not use/ have access to Photoshop.
Once your download is complete, just launch Photoshop and open the files you have purchased. This should make them immediately available in Photoshop. Ensure that you have your actions panel open on the right-hand side & any new actions will be available at the bottom.
what programs support actions?
Our actions are designed to work in Photoshop CS6 and above. These actions do not work in Lightroom.
how do i use your actions?
Our actions are made up of numerous layers adjusting different areas of an image. We encourage you to turn layers on and off to see how they affect the image. You can also reduce the opacity of individual layers to your taste, and remove from areas that you do not want the action to affect. This can be achieved by using a brush on the mask already provided on each layer. We choose to use the brush with a soft edge on a low opacity and repeat if necessary.
If the mask provided is white, use a black brush to reduce the affect of the action on a desired area. If the mask is black, the layer has been inverted and you should use a white brush to add this part of the action to certain areas of the image. If a layer is inverted, it means that this is currently having no affect on the image, to see what it does just press ctrl and the letter 'i' in photoshop to see what it does, and the same to switch it off.
You can also reduce/increase the opacity of each individual layer to reduce or increase the affect of the action on the whole image.
With gradient/flare layer, if you double click the icon to the left of the mask, you will be able to move these around on the image so that you can choose where on the image you want them.
Do you offer refunds?
Unfortunately, all digital goods are non-refundable. If you are having any problems with using/downloading our actions, please e-mail us or contact us via this page and we will be happy to help.
can you use more than one action on an image?
Of course! We encourage it. As a photographers, one of the main driving forces is always to create something different (well, it is for us) and whilst there will always be similarities to those we admire and feel inspired by, copying directly is boring. So please do layer these actions on top of one another, play with opacities and make them your own! What you do is what makes you unique and what makes you you.
Can I buy your actions individually
Yes, of course, each action will be individually listed within the collection. From time to time, we may also release individual actions that won't be available in collections.
