oh my friends, we landed in December

What is it one does Friday night?

Oh, yeah. Another brush set! *g*

- Photoshop 7 icon sized brushes. Dotted borders, dotted lines, some chess-board like brushes, some grids, some grunge stuff 'cause I like them.
- Stamps from all brushes, in GIF format.

[info]dettiot? Wanna make more PSP brushes? :-)

ETA:[info]dettiot made Paint Shop Pro 7 brushes out of my set. She explains how to install them:

"For PSP users, you'll want to unzip this file and put it into the Brushes folder for Paint Shop Pro. On my computer, this folder is found in C:/Program Files/Jasc Software/Paint Shop Pro 7/Brushes. Then, you can use the brushes in PSP. :-)"

To install the brushes on Photoshop 7:
- Unzip the file to any directory you want.
- On Photoshop, go to EDIT >> PRESET MANAGER. Select 'Brushes' on the pull down list and click the LOAD button. Then find the file in whatever directory you unzipped it.
- It'll load the brushes so when you use the Brush Tool, they'll appear on your current brush list.

Useful tips:
- Always apply a brush to a new layer. ::makes it a mantra::
- Grunge brushes like LOW (i.e. below 40%) Opacity.
- The Pencil tool is hard. The Brush tool is soft. Just like in real life. Experiment with both.
- If you have several layers, try creating a new layer between the ones you have and applying the brush there instead of on-top-of-everything. Remember you can move layers around by dragging them up and down the Layer Window.
- The eraser is your friend. Apply a brush to a new layer and then erase all of the brush that is covering whoever you're iconing. You'll have the brush effect only in the background.

(And don't I sound like an arrogant know-it-all? ::brings forth inner Hermione Granger:: *g*)

Anything else? Comment! :-)

PSP 7.0 brushes

For PSP users, you'll want to unzip this file and put it into the Brushes folder for Paint Shop Pro. On my computer, this folder is found in C:/Program Files/Jasc Software/Paint Shop Pro 7/Brushes. Then, you can use the brushes in PSP. :-)

Tissa, feel free to take the file and put it on your website.

*worshipworship*

I noticed a few of your brushes were made by some patterns I've used in the past, its a brilliant idea for those of us who are too lazy to get those patterns and download them for Adobe--instead we just get it with the brushes. Anyway, I love your work.

[info]dtissagirl

December 5 2003, 19:46:33 UTC 8 years ago

Thank you! :)

I've never really used patterns, 'cause I'm too lazy to figure them out when I know how to use brushes. *g*

Thanks so much for your generosity in sharing!

is there any way I can make these brushes into photoshop 6 brushes?

[info]dtissagirl

December 17 2003, 17:02:28 UTC 8 years ago

Well, I haven't used PS6 in forever, but in PS7, all you gotta do is open each of the GIF files (which I posted) and go to EDIT >> DEFINE BRUSHES. I hope it's the same for PS6 :)
