I am using Photoshop CS and I am having a problem I am not sure how to fix. When attempting to use my brushes on a 'New' document all I get is a crosshair.
But if I 'Open' an existing image or document I can 'see' the brush (which is the way its supposed to be). Can someone please explain this to me or help me fix this problem. It was working fine before I had to reinstall everything.
Thanks!
it could be to do with the size of the brush compared to the size of the document

I tested that possibility by opening 'new' documents in various sizes. I also tried various brushes and I still have the same problem.
My mate has the same problem hes tried everything but re installing :(

I wish it were that simple. It's not the caps.
After messing around with different options I have narrowed down my problem, so maybe this will get me the answer I am looking for.
If I attempt to create a 'New' doc my brushes don't show and my text is so freakin tiny you can't see it.
So I created a New doc using the preset 'default photoshop size' and my brushes and text were the size they should be.
It is only when I am trying to create a New doc using the custom preset that I have this problem. Does this sound familiar to anyone?
Aylett, when you open a new document, make sure your resolution is set at 72 pixels/inch. Not saying that is the problem but that sounds like your problem because of the small text that you described.
Yep.. i had the same problem and i think it was set to 8

Thanks, I did check and the resolution is at 72 px/in by default. So I decided to mess around with it. I set the resolution to 1 and miraculously my brushes worked as they should. But when attempting to add text it is still very very small. I had to put the font at 600 pt just to see it. Obviously there is still a problem, I shouldn't have to set my resolution to 1.
My was the oposite, the font was about 20pixels at 3 but the brushes were fine...
Its not done it in a good few months though
