Is there any way to reverse an effect. IE: I have a particle effect that should count down but it counts up. Is there anyway to reverse this to make it count down.

Are you looking for the "Time Stamp" effect to get a counter?
It can do a count down. Win8.1 Pro x64 / Dual x5670 / 24GB / GTX960 4GB / 240GB SSD + 640GB HDD / PD13 Ultimate

Yes, basically that's what I want to do. Having a count down from 5 -1. I will try the time stamp effect to see if that's what I'm looking for. Thanks so much for your quick reply.

If that doesn't work, or you want to use it on a different effect, just place the effect on the timeline and produce it normally. Import the produced video and place it in the timeline then use the Power Tools|Video in Reverse button. You may want to use the Chroma Key to make the black background transparent so the main clip will be visible behind the backwards effect.

EKSVid's approach is the easiest way, though
