I did alot of cool things in this one ps document I was working on but I forgot what I did to make it look that way. I tried looking at Windows>History but it only showed what I quick wand'd. I tried undoing everything but it stopped after 18 clicks. Is there away to set it higher so that you can undo a HUGE number of actions?

Edit>Preferences>General>Performance

Then there should be a box that says HISTORY STATES and you can up it to 1000.

I THINK this is the correct way after looking in my Dummies book and trying it out. If anyone can affirm this I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

You won't (as far as I know) be able to recover any of your history, in the future set snapshots and then you should be able to navigate back in history to those states. Setting to 1000 if fine if your computer can handle it, but I think snapshots would be better.

Why wouldn't the computer be able to handle it? I have like 600 GB and I think like 3 GB of RAM. I already set it at 1000. Would it crash my computer or something? I'm worried now.

Thanks for the tip about snapshots. I'm gonna look into that.
