@Sardinia: Glad you grabbed your copy!
You’re on Windows, right? I’m on a Mac and already had the problem of broken images on Windows while they’re correctly displayed on Mac. I’ll fix it tomorrow when I’ll have access to a Windows machine, thanks for letting me know!

Silly question, maybe, but what do I do with a script once it’s downloaded and extracted? I’m guessing I need to drop it somewhere in the Photoshop files, but there’s no folder called “scripts.”

@KimC: Open Photoshop, then go to “Window” -> “Actions”. Simply drop the script file to the “Actions” window

Thanks, but I don’t have “actions” under “Window.” I’m using PSE 5.0 and Windows XP.
After a brief google search, I’m thinking it’s far more complicated and actually takes a tutorial to do the job. Am I right? Not that I’m asking you to create one…they’re available already on the web.

@KimC: I’m not sure it works with Photoshop Elements 5, but it definitely works on Windows, I just tested it.
Good luck!
