[align=center][quote]Hi guyz! well ive shown some of you how to create brushes using Adobe PS,.. Now im going to show you how to create brushes using GIMP.. Like some of you,.. im just a Newbie GIMP.. well ive been using PS for almost 10 months but i can still call my self a newbie there hehe and its been only 1 week since i first use GIMP.. Okay enough chitty chatty,.. Here's how to do it 1. First you need to have an image that you wanna turn into GIMP Brush.. Im going to use this image (its my initials and my sig. in the real world LOL) [img]http://img127.imageshack.us/img127/4156/30786683he0.png[/img] TIP : Your brush will look better it youll set the background transparent.. You may also use a photo of your own or any pic.. How to make the bg transparent ? simply click on the plus sign on the advanced options then change the Fill With to Transparency (the options you see below will pop-up when you're creating a new GIMP image "File >> New") [img]http://img385.imageshack.us/img385/5057/36271439xj0.png[/img] 2. Save it as GIMP Brush [img]http://img258.imageshack.us/img258/176/gimp1bg5.png[/img] to view the larger size of this pic click on this link : http://img258.imageshack.us/my.php?image=gimp1bg5.png IMPORTANT : save your image with the extension ".gbr" >> GBR is for GIMP Brush.. ex : brush1.gbr Be sure to save it on : ~/.gimp-1.2/brushes/. to go there simply: click on the plus sign on "Browse for other Folders" then go to >> C: drive >> Program Files >> GIMP-2.0 >> Share >> GIMP >> 2.0 >> brushes 3. Give it a Description [img]http://img395.imageshack.us/img395/6492/savekw2.png[/img] 4. Look for it It is done: now you have a new animated brush. But it does not appear in the dialog "selection of brushes" until you press the refresh button. [img]http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/3059/untitledek5.png[/img] 5. You may now use it have fun!
