This is a must have tool for any designer!  This PNG Trimmer action will trim off the wasted space around your png elements & alphas - making your files smaller and zips quicker for your customers to download!

 

The PNG trimmer will take your open png and with the click of a button, it will add a small stroke around your element.  Next it will trim away the excess space around your element and then remove the stroke style. Photoshop users can even use the Batch process and this action to trim all the pngs in their kit at once!

 

As a bonus, I've included an action that will add a stroke style to your png.  You can use this to find stray pixels - just erase them (with the stroke on) and then remove the stroke.   I know that some software programs do include this feature, but earlier versions of PSE do not offer a removable stroke layer style.

 

Complete instructions are included in the download. Tested in PSE5.0- PSCS4.0.
