Brushes - Can someone explain in layman terms...

[KPierce]

Brushes?

I think I know what they are but not sure....so can someone explain please?

Will the same brushes work in all programs or different brushes for each program? Do brushes work in Photoshop Elements or Real Draw Pro?

Thanks

Brushes are simply images that can be used over and over again by saving them as brushes to your image editor. Most are created in Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro format, but many graphic Editors use them. Real Draw pro has it's own format, and you can create them yourself or download them from the website of one of our dear members here in the forum (www.busharts.com). There is also a program that will allow you to convert PSP picture tubes into RD brushes.

Brushes are really wonderful, because you can use the images individually, or in series, like making a chain, a string or pears, a rope, etc. If you go to Harry's site mentioned above, you can learn all about RD brushes.

Hope this helps!
