I just hit the 500 mark, and it dawned, this may go to 1000 labels. The longest part of the process of creating these labels is adding the 12 thumbnails for the color back.

Here’s what I’ve been using

1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
10 11 12

each number represents a thumbnail.

For the longest time, for easier management, I had the rows in 4 folders When I tried to turn this process into an action, it worked once. Then I get errors [folder not available] [align not available] etc.. IOW: It worked once.
Then I switched to not using folders, but still the same layout. Still getting errors.
I don’t know if it’s a naming problem or not.

I was just picking up the 12 images and sticking them in the DVD template. After getting all 12 in the template, I’d align, and resize to fit the template.
And still getting errors ie: Layer 9 not available.

Then I switched to select all, copy, and paste them to the template, and still getting the layer not available thing.

How do I get the actions to select more accurately ?
