Effects Presets - examples/gallery?

Hi all,

Once upon a time I remember looking at a gallery of some sort that showed examples of the various animation effects presets (particularly the text 3D stuff).  For the life of me I can't remember where it was.  I thought perhaps it was in the Adobe Help System, or it was an html file in one of the doc folders.  But I cannot figure out where I saw this.  Strangely enough I searched this forum for 'effects example' , 'presets examples', 'effects gallery' and 0 results came up for each.  Can anyone point me to what I'm looking for, or did I imagine this all....?

I'm still running CS3 if that makes a difference.

Thanks,
Chris

    See "Animation presets overview and resources" in After Effects Help. There's a link to a gallery of animation presets in the section at the bottom titled "Online resources for animation presets".

    I would like to reopen this issue as the answer from 2011 does not work. I'm posting this following a mind numbingly unproductive conversation with support via chat (text). But just to fast forward this to what I want to see - I want Adobe to host a page that looks like this so I don't have to rely on 3rd party pages for this basic information: https://www.sideshowfx.net/ae-presets

    Thanks Todd.  The link to the Creative Cow tutorial actually got me exactly what I was looking for.  In the Effects/Presets panel there is a mini-menu with a "Browse Presets..." command.  That opens up Bridge and from there you can preview all of the effects. That's what I remember using a while back.  However, I do like the online version here since that shows you the live preview of each effect without having to click on them like in Bridge.

    Thanks Again,
    Chris
