Sweet, sweet photoshop freebie

Wednesday, May 19th, 2010

If you like well made (and free) photoshop brushes, then go to Colorburned to see the latest offering.

I downloaded and installed the spray paint brushes and lost the better part of the last 20 min just making paint strokes. I know, sad isn’t it?

If you have not downloaded brushes before, fear not – it’s really easy. If you download and expand the zip with WinZip or Stuffit (Win or Mac) you only need to install the brush files by putting the .abr file in the correct folder.

So… what is the correct folder?
To Start:
Close Photoshop
Then:
In Windows open My Computer ->C: drive (main hard drive) ->Program Files ->Adobe ->Photoshop CS4 (or your version)
In Mac open the Applications folder ->Adobe Photoshop CS4 (or your version)
Then:
for both Win and Mac…
Open Presets folder ->Brushes and place the file in this folder. Restart Photoshop.
TaDa!
