I just wanted to know what Automator plugins people use a lot. I've got several Finder plugins that i use. These are the options that appear when you control-click a file and choose the "Automator" option.

I have three simple ones that I named:

"Replace Underscore" - it just replaces any underscore in a filename with a regular space, since a lot of times downloaded files have underscores all throughout the file name.

"Title Case" - changes the case of filenames to title case.

"Add Spotlight Comment" that gives you a dialogue box that allows you to add spotlight comments easily.

I also have one called "Create Icon for..." that I use with the freeware program MakeIcon Carbon to make preview icons for pdf and image files.

I'd love to hear how other people are using this function.
 
Here's the Make Icon action... you also need to download the freeware program called MakeIcon Carbon for it to work. Good luck!
