Brushes!

#1 Post by Kitten Medli »

I am having so much trouble finding brushes that work in Adobe Photoshop Elements and / or are what I want. I'm mainly looking for swirls and all that fancy junk, so can anyone help? Sorry to ask. :/

O.o most brushes for normal PS will work on Elements...All of my brushes were designed for it, and they work fine with Elements.

Are you having trouble because most of the brushes you find are designed for Jasc Paintshop Pro? If this is the case, you can solve the problem by switching the file extension to .ABR or whatever is required by the program you're using (Photoshop generally uses ABR though).

The following two sites aren't bad for brushes although you may have to search around (particularly on the second one) because its buried amongst all the other content:

http://vanilla-dreams.com/
http://annikavonholdt.com/

Good luck :)

The Nagel Series is very extensive, and now that I have them I can't imagine trying to do much without them. I believe they all say which versions of photoshop they work with, too. (=
