Hi. I’ve got Photoshop CS4 and have created an action. However, for the life of me, I can’t figure out how to save the action to a file so I can share it with others. The action converts a PSD to JPG and exports it for the web. How do you save an action so you can share it? I don’t want to share all of my actions — just this one. Thanks.

I figured it out: You need to create a "New Set…", drag and drop the action into that, then select the new action set and click "Save Actions…" This will save the custom action to an *.atn file.
