    In this Adobe Photoshop tutorial I will show you how to use the actions embeded function, actions are some predesigned procedures to automate the most custom things.


    1.
    In this tutorial you will only see how to automate the procedure of making an image black and white, but this can easily be translated to bigger and more complex actions.

    First of have your image imported that you want to do this actions to.

    2.
    In the actions panel (next to the history panel if you have not changes any settings in photoshop), click create new action now you have to name your action.



    3.
    Now you are recording what ever your are doing in photoshop.
    What I just did was.
    Go to image -> adjustments -> desaturate to make the image grayscale.
