Photoshop "Save As" default folder

Hi,

Suppose I want to work on a series of images that were recorded in a CD. I want to open each, work on it, and save it in a different location in the HD.

Each and every time I choose File/Save As, Photoshop thinks I will save the image in the default place it was opened from - in this case, the CD - so I have to go through the whole folder specification dialogs. For every image.

Isn't there a way to make Photoshop remember the last Save location and use *that* as the default location for the next save, regardless of where the image was opened from?

I am aware of actions and automation, but I dont want to open multile images at once, but rather have a default save-to folder that is not necessarily the same one the image was opened from.

It is a pain to specify the same folder tens or hundreds of times per session. There must be a better way to do this.

All thoughts are welcome.

Thanks,
Bruno.

No ideas?

U could copy the files to your hard drive first. that way when finished all at same place, easy to move or delete.

This really bothers me as well. I would love to find the solution.

And no. Moving it to the hard drive is not really a solution unless you save in the same folder.
