Action Thumbnails for Hidden Power 4

[djmusic130]

I have created a series of actions on PhotoShop at work and saved them for home. The first and last preview show up fine, but the middle ones are all messed up, kind of like the computer started drawing them on the middle of the first line. The right pixels are there, but they are scattered. Any ideas on what might be wrong? Only the bottom layer is visible in the psd file.

I didn't know exactly where to move this, but it seems to be in Richard's area, so I moved it over here. He can determine where it finally belongs when he replies.

I'd need a lot more detail as to what you are trying to do, and perhaps the action itself. Can you explain what the action attempts to accomplish and where it seems to be blowing up (what steps)? have you tried slowing down the playback using the Hidden Power playback options?

Thanks for the reply. The actions work fine, it's just that the thumbnails don't show up correctly. The first and last preview in my .psd file show up fine. However, the middle 5 are distorted. If you think of the thumbnail as 64 slices of the image, it looks like the first line actually starts into the middle of the first line and wraps to the middle of the following line. In the .psd file, only the bottom layer is marked as visibile. Any ideas?

OK, my bad. I must have had a couple of the layers with some parts outside the 64x64 matrix. While it looked OK, after I cropped the image, it all worked. It only showed 64x64, but must have been some hidden parts to some of the layers.
