In answer to Lucienne, I believe the History log was first introduced in Photoshop CS so there is no viable alternative to it in versions of Photoshop prior to this.. it’s paper and pencil I’m afraid.

Helen, there is an added bonus having a log of your steps. You can use it to create your own “actions” and save it as a shortcut key. May I suggest this as one of your future topics. I know your fans will be more than appreciative. Keep up the great work.

I`ve been using photoshop off and on for many years and through many of the different versions.
There`s a lot I know but it still amazes me about how much I don`t know about this program.

Love these tips

Keep them coming

What would make this even better is some facility to playback the log i.e. have all of the steps applied to an image.

Won’t this increase the file size of the images?

Thanks so much for this tip! I’ve always wanted this. Writing it down takes too much time. I’ll put this to good use.

Wonderful! Thank you for the tip. :)
And I agree with jeremy edmonds: lots of history => lots of RAM.
