Probably photoshop brushes, they’re really fun and everything you could want, they have. Just search things like people photoshop brushes. Or cat photoshop brushes, in google. Deviant Art has a GREAT variety as well.

Check out this site..

And also, check out photoshop tutorials, they’ll teach you so much.

Action Central That’s where I found my midnight actions and ethereal actions.

Oh man! I love Photoshop! Why didn’t I see this before? lol

I most lurve…the ability to change blend modes; I think hard burn is one of the coolest effects. This can be done by double-clicking a layer or the right-hand side and changing the setting or clicking under the “layer” tab in the layer window.

I also love supersaturating images (as is obvious with my avatar) and playing around with colors. But, oh man, you can do so much when you double right-click a layer (on the right-hand side)!!! Adding shadows, embossing, adding overlays…You should check it out if you already haven’t.

Oh, wait…I don’t know what you mean by “free” actions. I have a registered version. :/

LOL! They mean “Actions” Presets that you can get for free that you install into PhotoShop.

yeah, I figured that out too late, lol. Where’s that freakin’ edit button when you really need it, huh?

I’m a fan of Greater Than Gatsby’s Free Photoshop Actions lately. They’re a nice collection of different actions and are a great place to start if you’re just starting with Photoshop or Photoshop actions.
