photoshop question

[UKBob]

is there a way to rename all the files in a folder, by assigning them 01, 02, 03 file names after the unwanted photos have been deleted?

I highlight them all and right click for rename, whatever you call it, they then add after each one (1)(2)(3) etc is that what you mean?

Have you tried using the Batch Rename command?

Cheers guys.

PS (or ps elements) has a "rename all files" command which pops up when you select multiple thumbnails

Anyone know if its possible to do the same with other types of files on the pc?

Have a look at

www.fauland.com

Program A.F. 5

It's a great tool and very flexible.

However I would guess that if you are using any sort of Album or organiser software for cataloguing the internal database index would not be auto-updated. That may or may not be a problem depending on the way you operate.

not really sure what im doing. Still using elements, about to install CS, still sorting photos from the last few years taken on my old camera

there is something in the file->scripts menu, only found it yesterday but it looks like the gadget. I use the software that came with my 20D to do it, its really quick and easy
