Last week we published our first GIMP post “” and saw a great appreciation from our readers. So this week, i would like to share with you 1000+ high-Resolution GIMP brushes that will be perfect for any project you may happen to be working on.

Also you will find some useful tutorial to teach you how to create your first GIMP brush-set and how to convert Photoshop brushes into GIMP brushes and more. Please note that Photoshop Brushes are now Fully Compatible with Gimp 2.4 and up. So you can now use any PS brush in your GIMP software. For another huge collection of Photoshop brushes, you might find some really.

Important: Licenses of every brush set varies, so be sure to check that information before using them. Grunge Brush set 1.1. In Windows XP Install GIMP brushes GIMP Brushes and gradients are installed similarly – extract and drop the brushes into C: Document and Settings.gimp- brushes and gradients into C: Document and Settings.gimp- gradients In Mac OS X Brushes can be installed by dropping them (.gbr files) into the brush search path that is specified in GIMP’s preferences.

If you have not tweaked anything, this is usually /Users/username/.gimp-2.x/brushes/ where 2.x denotes the version number of GIMP you are using (version number is visible in the GIMP startup splash page). Note that you should replace ‘username’ with your short username (not the full name). Install GIMP brushes in Linux Go to your Home folder. You have to make hidden files/folders visible, so hit Ctrl+H. Go to the directory named.gimp-2.x (where 2.x is version number of GIMP you are using).

Within that folder, there are subfolders, one of which is brushes. Drop your brushes to that folder Source:. They work perfectly for me. A couple broken/dead links on the site (including the one that shows someone who does not know; how to install them, lol. Bummer for some).

They are nice brushes though, ty. @Roxxie: In case you don’t know how to install them here is the way (for a Windows OS): Go to your downloads folder (in Documents/My Documents) and find the zip file. Extract it (it should extract to Documents/My Documents by default, as a single folder containing the brushes).

Your going to want to find the folder for the brushes in your Documents folder and leave it open as you do the next step. Then go to Computer/My Computer, (C:) Drive, Program Files, Find gimp and open it’s folder. Under the newest version, you’ll see a folder called share. Open that and go into the one inside there that says gimp (yes, this again). Their is a 2.0 folder in that oneand finally inside of that folder named 2.0 is one that says brushes.

You either right click and cut the whole folders (not the individual brushes) and paste them into that brush folder, or drag them over and drop them in (try not to drop them into an existing folderthere should be some empty space at the bottom). Keep in mind gimp was not originally made for windows which uses a lot of automated installers and wizards usually. Adding new brushes, fonts and plugins is often a manual process.

Don’t over load your gimp with things you never use either or it will take 5-10 minutes to start up. You might want to make a desktop folder to extract gimp add-ons to that will make it simpler to put things in gimp and pull it out.

Another thing to know is gimp won’t change it’s layout due to these actions while the program itself is open. So make sure it is closed or that your restart your gimp after you affect changes like this. The good news is most PS stuff can be dropped into gimp in a similar fashion (it’s all about finding the right folder to drag the thing you need over to).

So gimp is like a PS you can build to your needs rather then have a ton of stuff on it you don’t understand or never use. Pretty nice the only thing is A.

You can only do solid colors B. The brush stays the same as you drag it This ma ysound a bit picky, but it would be nice if you could choose a couple different colors for each section of the brush. For instance, having the inside section of the lightning brushes white, then the outer part a different color (say, purple). And if there could be a script put in some brushes “Like the vine brush on Gimp” where it changes the brush as you stroke it so it looks more realistic, that would be awesome. Otherwise, AWESOME BRUSHES.
