The best I can think of is to toggle the dialog for the save steps and you'd have to punch the name in by hand for each save. I don't know if there's a way to automate that. @Fernando do you mean something to detect if the photo was taken in portrait orientation? If so, I don't know that it's possible. Most newer cameras record this information and automatically rotate them before they even leave the camera. @Ryan file naming with actions can be a tricky thing to do.

Layer 1 stays put and is locked. Layer 2 moves. I would like to set up an action with in this file where layer 2 moves up 3 pxs then saves as "file_name1"... then does the same action from there saves as "file_name2" ... etc. How do you go about doing that action? Each time I try to write it, the file just saves as the same name. It is really quite frustrating. Thanks for you help in advance! -Ryan Great job, however I have looked hi and low for an answer to this question:
