The Photoshop® Action Exchange
A new look — and more
Action Central has been completely rewritten to conform to the latest web standards. This will make it friendly to more browsers and speed up page loading. Aside from a new look, the most obvious change is that the listings that contain full descriptions and examples of actions have been subdivided into six categories in the left-hand navigation, "Actions by Category."
You can still browse through the entire list of actions on our quicklinks page or find them cross- referenced by developer. We know these changes may take some time to get used to, but our goal is to make these free actions more accessible. We hope you find the new look useful.

I've been asked whether I would be willing to host presets for Adobe Photoshop Lightroom® and other imaging products. With the increased bandwidth, I'm perfectly willing to do this. Bring 'em on.
