@Thomas25199145gknj – I am not sure if this is what you want or not. The following script will stack a folder of supported filetypes as linked smart objects. It is easy to change the setting from linked to embedded if that is how you wish to work. The colour mode and bit depth are based off the first file opened. Supported filetype extensions include: jpg/jpeg, tif/tiff, png, psd, psb & gif
