Help....
I have an action that I designed that does some resizing, saving and closing. I need to build into the action a feature in which Photoshop will auto name each file with a 3 digit serial number that increases by one every time the action is run. Example:
I run the action on file 'pictureA.jpg' and before saving it, it must either change names to 001.jpg or 001pictureA.jpg then when I run the action on the next image, say 'pictureB.jpg' it must save it as either 002.jpg or 002pictureB.jpg
Make sense?
I've tried batch processing but can't get it to do what I want. I do not want to run a batch process on a bunch of open files, or a directory of completed files, but I want the nameing to occur every time the action runs.
