I'm trying to create a 20 by 30 poster, using Jim Heid's automator action. however, when I open the action, downloaded from his web site, I get the following:

This workflow document is missing some required resources:

• Automator could not find an installed action with the name "Create Thumbnail Poster"

This workflow may not behave correctly when run.

Then, when I go ahead and try to run the action, I get this message:

"Can't get item 1 of {}. (-1728)"

This is getting frustrating. I did make the poster, using the longer Mike Matas method (and I made some kind of error, with the proportions now slightly off, but it will do for now). Has ANYONE used Jim heid's automator action to make this poster? And does anyone know if my problems are with some sort of bug in automator, or within this particular action? Thanks.
