WOW.. Incase you missed the Gadget Show last night, there was a feature on the social networking app I worked on with Ben Dodson and the Gadget Show Team.  It was awesome to see how they put the program together.

Social BeaconOver the past month they have had the Apps available to download, and by Day 3 we were in the top 20 Social Networking apps!.  But we were eclipsed by the Biker Blast Off app which sold over 1 Million in the US!, how crazy is that?.  They absolutely smashed us out of the park!.  None the less, today we are No.4 on the App store free UK downloads!, which is colossal!

Anyway have a look at the app store and download it.. its great fun and FREE!

Supressing jpg options popup in Photoshop Batch Processing

Posted: October 4th, 2009 | Author: Liza | Filed under: cs4, photoshop | Tags: , , , | 1 Comment »

I rarely do Batch Processing, but I find it incredibly useful when I do.

I had an issue kick up where every time I batch processed images (just basically resized them and saved them again), a “jpg options” dialog box came up.

So instead of Photoshop just batch processing 300 images I would have to sit here for every image and press “OK” for each, which kind of defeats the purpose.

The solution was to tick the “Override Action “Open” Commands” in the Automate area.

Also although I wanted to use the “save for web” options, It didnt seam to work and also kicked up the same error.  So I just used “Save As”. this technique worked for me anyway.
