Rubik Cube

SOTELO, THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE, I DON'T KNOW IF IT IS A DIFFERENT
PROCEDURE IN CS2 / CS3, BUT I DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW I GET TO THE ACTIONS
IN ELEMENTS 5 .

WHEN I GET TO THE PRESETS, I CANNOT SEE ANYTHING THAT SAYS ACTIONS.

I AM SORRY FOR NOT UNDERSTANDING THIS. I HAVE GONE THROUGH IT SEVERAL TIMES
AND KEEP DRAWING A BLANK.

MANY THANKS

I think in Elements 5 it goes under a Effects folder
let me verify ill be right back

YES, it goes:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 5\Previews\Effects

drop it in there and it should work WOODY.

THANKS VERY MUCH SOTELO, SORRY TO HAVE BEEN SO MUCH TROUBLE.
I WILL GIVE THIS A TRY NOW. THANK YOU

First you caps lock seems to be stuck on. It makes it look like you are shouting at us. !!!

According to the web page these are photoshop actions. I assume that you have "Photoshop Elements" or "Photoshop" on you computer. If you do not I guess you cannot use them.

If you do have one of these programs the best thing to do is to read the help files or manual. That will explain what to do

Whoops. Sincere appologies Woody. I did not know you could look at peoples info like that.

Thanks ray for pointing my error out to me.

Sorry.

WOODY · 04-02-2008, 11:54

NO PROBLEM

WOODY · 04-02-2008, 17:17

JUST AN UPDATE ON WHERE I HAVE GOT TO. IN THE SPECIAL EFFECTS, IN ELEMENTS 5
I GET THE WORDS COME UP, I E:- RUBIKS CUBE , I DON'T GET ANY THUMBNAILS, ALSO
NOTHING HAPPENS WHEN I TRY TO APPLY IT.

I DON'T KNOW WHERE I HAVE GONE WRONG, DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS
AS I FAR AS I CAN TELL I HAVE FOLLOWED ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS THAT I HAVE BEEN
GIVEN.

IT'S NOT THAT I AM SO MUCH CONCERNED ABOUT THE EFFECTS, IT'S MORE THAT
I WANT TO BE ABLE TO DO THIS, I AM TRYING DESPERATELY TO IMPROVE MY
COMPUTER SKILLS, WHICH I HAVE TERRIBLE TROUBLE WITH.

I AM SORRY IF THIS SEEMS TO BE DRAGGING ON BUT I WOULD JUST LIKE
TO BE ABLE TO DO IT.

THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR PATIENCE .

Woody, I just googled for you + found this page which explains exactly what to do, just scroll down for the Elements 5 instructions.

As an aside, can I suggest that you put your caps-explanation in CAPS so it's a bit more noticeable to newcomers

WOODY · 04-02-2008, 20:43

CHARLOTTE, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR FINDING THIS, I WILL GIVE IT A TRY.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT I KEEP DOING WRONG, BUT I WILL KEEP AT IT. I WILL NOT BE
DEFEATED.

REGARDING CHANGING THE WORDING, IN THE AVATAR I DID NOT DO THIS,SO I DO
NOT KNOW HOW TO ALTER IT TO CAPS. ONE OF THE CREW DID THIS FOR ME. I CAN
NOT REMEMBER WHO DID IT NOW, I HAVE A FEELING IT WAS STEVE.

IF ANYONE CAN ALTER IT FOR ME OR CAN TELL ME HOW TO ALTER TO CAPS.

THANKS AGAIN CHARLOTTE

WOODY · 06-02-2008, 21:07

THIS IS WHERE I AM UP TO SO FAR, THE WORDS COME UP, BUT NOTHING HAPPENS
WHEN I TRY TO APPLY EFFECTS[IMG]

Wish I could help you Woody, but I haven't progressed to 'actions' yet

j sotelo · 07-02-2008, 06:38

Woody, maybe that action is for Photoshop ONLY, heres a link to the same action for PSE5 and it also has a PDF on how to install it
PanosFX.com - Rubik's cube PSE

WOODY · 07-02-2008, 10:24

SOTELO, THE EFFECTS I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO INSTALL, ARE FOR PSE5. I HAVE FOLLOWED THE INSTRUCTIONS ON THE PANOS WEBSITE, I HAVE TRIED INSTRUCTIONS
ON A WEBSITE THAT CHARLOTTE FOUND, I ALSO FOLLOWED YOUR INSTRUCTIONS.

ALL OF THESE, NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I TRY, ALL LEAD TO THE SAME PLACE.
THEY LOAD THE WORDS ARE THERE, BUT NOTHING HAPPENS, I AM OBVIOUSLY GOING
WRONG SOMEWHERE BUT I DON'T KNOW WHERE.

I HAVE READ ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS OVER AND OVER

I THINK IT MIGHT BE TIME FOR ME TO ADMIT DEFEAT
