Photoshop brushes are a way to advance your graphic designs in this
Adobe program. Using brushes in Photoshop will make your job a lot
easier as well. In this Photoshop tutorial, I will show you how to
install new brushes in Photoshop. So, let’s get this show on the road!
Step 1 – Locating the Brushes to Download and Install
Before you can install new Photoshop brushes, you will need to find some brushes and download them. There are many places you can find free brushes to download and install. Simply go to the search engine you prefer and do a search for free Photoshop brushes. Once you find the brushes you want to install, go ahead and download all of the ones you want.
Step 2 – Unzipping Your Photoshop Brushes
Now you need to unzip all of the files you downloaded. Go to your downloads folder and locate all of the files you downloaded. Double click the first file and unzip it. Once that file is unzipped, go to the next file and unzip it as well. Continue with the unzipping until you have them all unzipped. Remember where you extracted all of them to because you will need to go to that location and get the files for step 3.
Step 3 – Add the Brush Files to Photoshop
Now you are ready to add the files to your Photoshop folder, in other words, install your Photoshop brushes. You will have to move each file one by one, so if you have downloaded a lot of brushes, this step is going to take you a little while, but it is so worth the time when you get to play with those new brushes.
Open the first folder with the .abr file, right click it and click Copy in the drop down menu. You can also click the file and press CTRL C to copy the file. Open your Program Files folder and open the following folders Adobe > Photoshop > Presets > Brushes. Once you are in the brushes folder, right click on a blank space and click Paste in the menu. You can also click on a blank space and press CTRL V to past the file. Leave this folder open and go back to your brush files. Continue repeating step 3 until you have installed all of your brushes. You can then open Photoshop and begin using your new brushes.
Note: Do not install the new brushes while Photoshop is opened. Close Photoshop and then install the new brushes.
