Photoshop Action

I don't use Photoshop as much as I used to when i did more graphic design work, but I still use it often as a utility for resizing, saving for the web, etc images for wireframes and and the like. I had sometimes thought that I could probably get a much simpler program, maybe even Preview, to get the job done.

Today I had to process a bunch of wireframes and put them up in Sakai's SVN repository. So I exported from OmniGraffle, opened the set up in PhotoShop and began resizing and cropping. Just as i started the first one, I thought to open the actions palette and record my process. I resized, cropped, saved for the web and closed the document. Then I repeated the action for the rest of the files. Wow that was easy. I'm not going to stop using Photoshop.
