No. But, you can make a hotkey for it.
From top menu: Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts.. ( Ctrl+Alt+Shift+K )
Just select Palette menus from the drop down list and then Animations. Once you've given a hotkey press Accept.
( Make sure to listen to photoshop when it warns you if the inserted hotkey combination would override any existing ones. You can try to use ...

On the Layer window change the mode of the fire layer from "Normal" to either Screen or Lighten and see if thats what you want. That's the easiest way to remove black.
Beyond that you can also go into the Blending Options and adjust the slider at the bottom where it says, "This Layer" and move the black tab on the left side in a bit but the results aren't ...

To add in words, Since Export Layers to Files is run by some script all I had to do was find that script, then find the function which saves the layers to files, find which part of the function does the numbering prefix & comment it out.
So here are the steps -
on Mac running Lion, goto Applications > Adobe Photoshop CS5 > Presets > Scripts ...

Photoshop's not the first tool I'd use to do something like this (Illustrator would be my choice), but you can achieve those results by stroking a path using a square brush with the right settings.
Create your circular path using the Ellipse tool.
Select the Brush tool and load the Square Brushes brush set. Select one of the square brushes.
Open the brush ...

Check if you have a Style set on your Shape tool settings?
It should be set on the white rectangle with a red stipe over it, and it seems to remember this setting even if you close the document, and create a new one.

According to what I understand from your question, the Illustrator file has the letters in curves or outlines, and not in text. This means all information about the font has been lost, and you only have a "drawing" of the letters. So it won't let you edit them.
If this is the case, you will need to re-add a text layer in Illustrator, with the russian ...

Place the circle shape layer under your images in the Layers panel.
Then click between the circle layer and the image on top of it while pressing alt key. This will use the circle layer as a clipping mask.
You can add layer styles into the circle layer and the images on top of it in the clipping mask, will use those same styles.
In my example image I ...

In the GIMP, getting rid of the background would be as easy as opening the file, selecting Colors → Color to Alpha... and choosing black (#000000) as the color to make transparent. Here's the result, saved as a transparent PNG:
In Photoshop that's a little bit trickier, but apparently there's a free plugin that can do it.
(That said, in this case ...

Solution A: Duplicate Image
When you want to save a web copy, you could duplicate the image (Image -> Duplicate), then do the adjustments for the copied (and possibly flattened) image.
I usually do it that way so the original image stays untouched, while the web save gets little color tweaks and watermarks. After saving I discard the copy, since there's ...

There are different ways to achieve what you're after. You just have to decide what works best for your workflow/platform.
Have the script assign all *.ai files in a given directory to an array, then loop through.
If you're on OS X, set up an AppleScript droplet that will do the same as option 1 for any directory dropped on it.
Create a file prompt at the ...

yes - try using the save for web option
you can then choose to use a png-8 or png 24
png24s are larger but give much better results when using alpha/opactity on an image
if the image is solid or what the image is being placed on is going to be solid then a png 8 is better as you have a finer degree of control over the quality & ultimatly the size of ...

Step by step, assuming you have used Photoshop:
Create a new layer, and draw an irregular line using the brush tool.
Zoom in and play with the line's opacity (you can delete or opaque certain parts), apply some smudge and also some shadows using blending styles.
Alternative, you can use a crack brush such as this one:
The 'making it realistic' part ...

You could use slices.
You could set up artboards for each object.
Ultimately I find, Copy, New, Paste, Save faster than most other methods.
You can also utilize the hidden "hide other" shortcut. Select the object you want to save/export and then hit Command-Option-Shift-3 (Mac) or Ctrl-Alt-Shift-3 (Win). This will hide everything which is not selected. ...

You can accomplish this with the Width Tool to a degree. But there will always be some area of transition between width points. In addition, it is actually a bit difficult to target a specific width for the Width Tool. Also, corners with varied widths present many issue with miters and it would be difficult to get the corners to appear smooth.
If I were ...

I don’t know the limitations of the iphone, but i think it is pretty similar to the web.
The compression of PNG is good for sharp text, but it has no options on how much you want to compress your image.
PNG 24 will be the way to go, if you have alpha-transparencies and a color palette which affords over 256 colors.
PNG 8 can be compared with GIF. You ...

I strongly suggest that you learn how to make your own brushes for exactly these types of instances.
http://danidraws.com/2007/01/20/make-your-own-photoshop-brushes/
You'll find yourself building them regularly as they can be more useful that the default ones. Over the years I've actually ended up using custom brushes as more of a way to drop clipart into ...

You are going to kick yourself I think when I tell you how to solve this; I think: Click on the actual path, not the area inside the shape with the Area Type tool.
One nice thing about Illustrator is that you do not need to select the Area Type tool, as Illustrator will automatically change to it when you mouse-over the path.
If you would rather type ...

I see your problem. I don't know of any way to adjust this within Photoshop, but you do have a couple of alternatives.
First, you can batch rename all your files using Adobe Bridge. (Tools >> Batch rename)
As you can see, this window provides many more options for renaming your files and controlling prefixes and suffixes. The downside is, if you need the ...

I did some tests, locking the layers I didn't want to rotate, using the Arbitrary rotate in the image menu (which of course i knew already wouldn't do it). But it seem to be global operation no matter how you twist and turn it (pun intended).
It seems that the only way is to copy your layer to another image, do the rotation, then copy the layer back.
There ...

The answer is very simple, but obscure. As it happens, it doesn't involve clipping masks. :)
Set the text over the shape. Open the text layer Blending Options dialog and set "Fill" to 0 percent, then change the Knockout dropdown to "Deep," which knocks out everything through to the background. This is one of those almost-never-used Photoshop features that ...

InDesign files are very different from their other Adobe brethren. Each version brings key changes in how the page is structured. I'll leave it at that.
Here's a discussion that provides an answer to your question. Essentially, you export to IDML format and hope for the best.

You could simply add another shape layer (circle in your case) on top with 0% fill that holds all the layer styles like drop shadow or gradient overlay.
For exporting I suggest making a layer comp for every view. This takes a bit of time but it will be so much easier once you need to change something and re-export.
