Photoshop is the king of graphics programs and there are several ways to extend the power of the program even further. Here are my ways: Action Files and Templates! The first two actions are "Old Film" and "Markerize" and they should work with any version of Photoshop newer than 4.0 and any platform. My add-on files are also available at Adobe Studio Exchange (and formerly at ActionXchange). I also converted my "PolaFrame" HTML template to work properly with the Web Gallery function inside Photoshop.

The "Old Film v1.0" action attempts to make your images look like old, worn, scratchy, hairy, dusty film or prints. Random every time.
+ Requires Photoshop 4.0 or above.
+ Press play and then set the two newly created layers to Multiply (or invert and set to Screen).

The "Markerize v1.0" action attempts to make your rasterized line-art graphics a bit more organic. Like drawn with a slightly worn-out marker. Simple and rather subtle. Includes low-res and hi-res versions. Random every time.
+ Requires Photoshop 4.0 or above.
+ Press play and enjoy.
