So I looked up some tutorials on how to do this because I wanted to maybe create some grungey brushes from these photos I took but I can't seem to make a test of what the tutorials tell me to do turn up in my brush palette. I followed both of these tutorials: [URL]. Saved the files as .gbr and .gih (i think is the other one it told me to do) and neither show up with my brushes.
In a related matter, I've never been able to find an option to refresh my brushes, there's no refresh button with the rest of them down the bottom of the palette.
I've noticed that one can download brush sets where several brushes are contained in a single file. Is it possible to use GIMP to create one of these files, or is that strictly a Photoshop thing?
I want to create some brushes but I am unsure of how to create a brush that is grayscale (black) vs a brush that goes on color... I've downloaded both brushes that are grayscale and brushes that are full color...
first off how do I create a grayscale brush such as
[URL]....
when my image is a color image
if Gimp saves brushes in grayscale by default then how do I create a full color brush like in
[URL]....
I see no option to set the brush type and I have NEVER created a brush before so how do I be sure that I make a grayscale bush when I want to and a full color brush when I want to??
I just got a bunch of new brushes and one of them is a series of 4 stitches that are oriented horizontally and look just like this - - - - . How can i run this in curves so that it still looks like stitches? When I stroke a path it creates a black mess(while using brush). When I drag and draw freehand the results are not much better. Is there anyway to make it so this can follow some sort of curved path? As if you are rolling the brush along a line like a paint roller and keeping the integrity of the brush? I'm using Gimp 2.6.10.
I'm using a tablet with gimp and I want to be able to set the brush size for the paint brush and also for the eraser, separately. What happens now is that I'll set the paintbrush size to 10px, paint for a little while, turn the pen over to erase and the eraser will now be at 10px. So I'll adjust the eraser size to something like 50px, erase, turn over, and now the paintbrush is at 50px. Grrrrrrr... I tried creating new brushes for both the paintbrush and the eraser, but there's no brush size option. This is my first time using gimp so I'm probably missing something.

how can I set the standard brush in GIMP? If I start GIMP, it choses a fat brush at first and i have to change it always to a thin brush. How can I tell GIMP, that it uses the thin brush at the beginning?
I watched a video on youtube using the brushes but he was able to select Gradients color instead of foreground colour. This made a very nice effect. I'm using gimp 2.8 and I cant find in the Tool Options the same ability to select a Gradient for the colurs used by a brush. Is this gone from the new 2.8 version ?
When i brought up my brushes dock, among the brushes was a little design I had cut out! How it got there but it is definitely not a brush. The drop-down menu for the dock had "delete" but it wasn't active/useable. How to get rid of that non-brush?
I download a few new brushes but i cant rotate them. they stay the way i downloaded them... is there a way i can rotate them... double click the brush i wanted and brush editor pops up but says "READ ONLY"... i do see an angle position but its not movable so cant rotate it.
How to delete a brush I made ( Watermark.png) that I used the 'paste as' new brush command to install. I have tried deleting it from my Brushes dialogue without success, & it doesn't show up in my brushes folder ... so how do I delete it ? .
I can't save anymore color when i create a new brush.I had no problem in CS5 but in CS6, it's a pain. When i created a new brush preset in CS5, i had the "save color" option in the windows.Now, in CS6, the only thing i have is "save brushe size" option.
So, Im trying to create a brush to watermark my photographs, but the 'define brush preset' isnt clickable, but it is clickable with any other photo i try it with.
I am thinking of a good way to organize my brushes. Now they are all in the settings window, in a row.I would liket to oganise them in folders, like they where in different boxes.
I'm creating maps and need to create a brush in Photoshop that will draw Rail Road tracks and follow the direction of the mouse or cursor. I'm just looking for two simple lines with cross marks. I need to be able to just brush around in any direction and have the line look like a simple Rail Road graphic following the direction I draw.
I am trying to create a seamless pattern brush in CS6 .When I use the no fill/no stroke bounding box placed behind the object to define the repeat, instead of cropping the object for the brush, it overlaps it. Here is an example:
When I do this in CS5- the bounding box works fine and crops out the space outside. Was there an update in CS6?
It used to be in Gimp 2.8.8 for Mac I would see the preview of the brush as the cursor so I could judge what the size was going to be now in 2.8.10 Mac (running Mavericks).
I have no preview. Just an cross hair and the brush icon. So I have to blindly guess the size of the brush. Is there a way to get this back?
A couple days ago, I was making some images, and I looked up a tutorial on how to make a watermark [URL]....... I did everything it said, but I could not find the brush.
I am having a bit of trouble with brush sizes compared to when I used photoshop. Using photoshop I could just click on a new brush size and shape as I was drawing. In GIMP it looks like one has to manipulate the size every time. And if you're to say use the eraser tool, it has to be manipulated to a desired size and then all over again to go back to drawing. Is there a way to save brush sizes and then just merely click to continue on?
As far as I know there are two ways to set the flow of the brush. Either by enabling or disabling [incremental] option, which, to my understanding, when enabling it - sets the flow to 0%. Let's say I'd like to set the flow to 70% and see how it works. how to do this without knowing nothing about programming and computer code?
In an older version of gimp I was able to set the spacing of a brush (for smudging and such) and I currently have gimp 2.8 but I don't have the option to anymore. How to change the spacing of a brush now?
