If anybody is like me and always forgets what you've done on a challenge, or just don't feel like writing the steps down, here's an easy way to keep track:
Before you start working on your challenge, open up the actions pallete, create a new action called "Challenge Description" and start recording. Now everything you do to the photo will be recorded in the action. when you're finished, go to the menu, hold down Ctrl + Alt and click Save actions. That'll save it as a text file, which you can then edit (add reasons as to why you did something, take out things you undid etc.) and after that, you'll have a very nice and thorough challenge description, which are very helpfull to anybody who's reading and learning from them.

) I know what you mean about having huge actions! with all the experimenting I do sometimes, it could go on for ages. there is one way around that though, when you're recording the action, just stop it while you're doing something you're not worried about remembering, then start it going again after that. I'm actually writing a tut right now about how to create actions, so that might help anybody who wants to try this out but doesn't know much about actions.
