Eh... sorry i must be stupid.. Where do you find the scripts option in photoshop (PS newbie here)

G-Me,
Download the file above.
In Photoshop look in the File menu. You should have a menu item labeled Scripts. In that submenu you should be able to select "Browse" and it will ask you to pick a script to run....select the file that you downloaded.
Your Photoshop installation should also have a Scripts directory somewhere (mine is in the Presets directory on OS X). You can drop this file in there and restart PS and it will show up in that Scripts menu without you having to browse for it each time you want to use it.

Great work! I didn't know you could have scripts in Photoshop.

nice work - where does one learn how to write these scripts for Photoshop?
I had ran into the same problem with other Lomo actions and some other actions I am working on.
BTW: I looked and there's no Scripts directory for Photoshop 6, but I'm not sure about 7. I have CS on both Mac and PC, but I haven't tried this script yet in CS on a PC.

I feel like a complete idiot.
I've been working with Ps since v.3.5 and now I'm running ps7 on OSX.3.9 and I'm unable to find either the script menu netiher the directory.
I figure more people will have the same problem.
would be neat if you could turn this into a "style" (.asl) or an action (.atn)
thanks for the effort though
cheers.

scripting is an add-in for PS7 (it's included with the distribution) and is standard in CS and CS2

BTW, ConceptDawg, I get a time-out when trying to load this script.
rfinn, there are dfetailed scripting guides in PDF provided with CS and CS2 -- there's at least one book on scripting PS and Illustrator as well.

Sorry for the timeouts. You gotta love Comcast's service. Hopefully it will stay up now.
As for starting another thread...it is because after 127 posts on the other thread it gets hard to read in this forum. Just noise management. Posts about this script would be scattered among posts of people's trials with LOMO, etc.

love the shot, jason - the swimmer really does POP with the Lomo. :)
bjorke: thanks, in the hours since my first post I did some research and found that yes, PS7 has a plug-in and CS includes scripting, but the syntax is slightly different in CS (you have to add "app." in front of references to things in Photoshop).
pindaro: This script is much better than an action, because all the actions I tried (or tried to make) were not usable at all from resolution to resolution. Of course, nobody claimed that to be the case, but this is a much more ellegant solution. :) If you look, however, there are a few examaples of Lomo actions here and elsewhere on the Web.

The other thing that this script gives you over all of the actions that I have seen is that it allows you to change all of the LOMO settings of of the image even after it is finished. Since each image is different, this lets you tweak the LOMO to get the best result.

I've been doing a fair amount of scripting myself for 3d-graphics texture generation, MIP mapping, etc -- it's astonishing how little scripting info and even fewer examples can be found on the web.....

I've heard that Elements 3 is capable of running scripts, but I can't find out anything about it. Mention is made of Actions, but they use .atn files, not .js files from what I can tell. Does anyone know how to run the Lomo script in Elements 3?

I love your script, but I tend to use it to get a basis for adjustments. I usually turn off some of the layers to make the effects more subtle, or adjust the transparency on some of the layers.

Just a quick question about this. I just got Adobe Photoshop CS and when it comes to the part when you're supposed to switch the Gradient type to Spherical, I do not have that option. My options are linear, radial, angle, reflected, and diamond. Any ideas on what I can do? I'm trying Hugo VT's tutorial.

The two I've just added to the pool are before and after lomo effects, I found that the photoshop action wasn't quite what I wanted, and the script version had different flaws - so I combined the elements from both that I liked via cloning :)

Kreuzer: When you download the script it should be a .js file. This file should be available from within Photoshop when you go through the menus:
File -> Scripts -> Browse.
Select the script (you should have an image open already) and it should do its magic. Send me an email if you have problems.
Hufse: The fact that you change the layers when it is done does not upset me at all. That's why I left the layers seperated and available after the fact. I usually edit them to fit the image also. Have fun.
Everybody else: I'm glad that you like the script. Always good to be of use to someone. Send me a message if you feel like something needs to be changed or you have problems.
The server was down for a little bit because of the recent hurricanes on the Gulf coast of the US, but all is well now. If (when) we have more hurricanes there might be more outages as we run like sissy boys for dry ground.

I think I got something similar directly in RAW (NEF) conversion by just compressing levels and boosting the shadows (D-Light in Nikon Capture, but should work similarly in PShop).

Thanks for the script, conceptDawg! I really like the look the LOMOscript adds, although occasionally I find it blows out a little bit too much detail in the highlights for my taste. It's easy enough to fix though -- just make a duplicate of your original background layer; move it on top of the LOMO set; set blending to "Multiply" and then reduce the opacity to something like 50% (or whatever suits your taste).

Okay, for everyone using CS2, you have to save the script as a jsx file. How do you do this? When you are downloading the file change the filename from CHLomoScript.js to CHLomoScript.jsx (just type an x at the end). You can save it to c\:Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS2\Presets\Scripts and it will show up automatically when you do the File > Scripts menu. Hope this helps.

mhusson: Not true at all. I'm running CS and CS2 and both use the .js extension just fine (at least on the Mac side...I can't say for sure that this is the case on Win). No changes to the script are necessary. The file location that you list is, of course, correct.

OK, I just found something out that was kind of interesting.
I took the original image (at left), and put it through shawnhoon's lomo script (centre). However, it looked too harsh -- colours in the lighter range were too bleached out. So I took the lomo image, pasted it into the original as a new layer, and set it to "multiply". Here is the final result, which I think keeps the lomolicious effect, with popped colours and more drama, but without quite as much bleaching in the lighter range (rightmost image).

Big lightning storms here....and the electricity is going out every once in a while. If you can't get to the script then just try back in an hour or two. The server will only be down for power outages (once the battery backup goes down) and maintenance. Other than that, the script will be available at all times.

Clickykbd, to get the scripts menu item you need to download an update for PS7 from Adobe.com and install it. The option appears in the File/Automate drop-down menu, and you need to download shawnhoon's script a few posts above and shove it into the "scripts" subfolder" in your PS directory. Done!

matt: And anyone else posting problems: What version of Photoshop are you using? It sounds like you are using v7. Notice that the CS/CS2 script will not work on 7. Shawnhoon has changed the script for PS7 users so that it doesn't use the new features that the CS version of the script does. I'll take a look and see if I can do an update to the original CHLomoScript that is 7.0 compatible.

OH! And I wanted to tell everybody that another Hurricane is projected to hit the house on Monday so the server may be down while the power is out (typically only a day or two....but has been known to take weeks (H'cane Ivan last year)). In the meantime, we'll be boarding up and getting the heck out if the projections show it coming our way (Mobile, AL). I'll leave the server on, so it will last as long as it can until the power goes out and the battery backup is depleted.

if you get the following error:
