    Hello guys!

    What's the best what you get in actions? Simplicity, idea?

    What about names of actions? Can you ever remember one of them?

    Example, there's an action called ˝Lomo˝. And there are few different actions in one pack like that first one, but called ˝Lomo 1˝, ˝Lomo 2˝, ˝Lomo 3˝, ˝Lomo 4˝, etc. Isn't that kind of confusing? :/

    That's my main problem with actions. What's yours + and - ?

    P.S. Sorry for my bad English.

    I usually give underscores when naming actions and other actions in the pack which avoids the confusion.

    I'm pretty much given up naming things v1, v2, v3, etc! I've wasted tons of time over the years doing that, but I've found that organizing my actions by folder (and being VERY descriptive in the title) works. But despite all that, I still lose track of what's what sometimes... :mad:

    Funny guy!

    I use actions mainly for exporting multiple items. When I'm done, I will delete the action. I prefer manual customisations. Tedious, yeah, but I like being particular.

    But I have organization problem with brushes....
