Hi, Thanks for purchasing the "Light FX Background Creator 3" action. This is an advanced action that processess 414 commands to produce a specific light effect background image, with 1 click. IMPORTANT**It works best on resolutions greater than 1000x1000. If you need it smaller then just create it at a larger resolution and crop sections for a quick solution, or flatten the layers and copy/paste it into your project. Firstly you need to place the 'LightFX Background Creator 3.atn' file in the "Actions" Folder under "Presets" in your photoshop directory. From here you need to: 1. Open Photoshop, create a new document and go to the "Window" menu and select "Actions" 2. Within the Actions window, select the top right hand corner icon and select the action from the list. 3. Create some text on the stage (create quite large text to see the effect better, then experiment with smaller sizes). 4. Rename your text layer "bg" and have it selected 5. Go back to the actions panel, select the action and hit play! NOTE: Please allow anywhere from 45 to 90 seconds to produce the background. This variation in speed will be determined by the resolution of your file and how fast your computer is. The action also neatly organises all the layers into groups based on the size of the circle and are named appropriately to make life easier for you when editing. The entire background is editable. Feel free to move the layers aroud, turn them on or off, make them bigger or smaller, experiment with the layers blend modes or duplicate layers to create more circles! The action creates two different lighting setups in folders which you can experiment with. There will be a layer where you can change the background color (note: experiment with the background color saturation, in most cases lowering the saturation will create a more aesthetic look rather than a higher saturated image) I Hope you like it and just email me if you need any help or tips.
