    Default Brushes help

    Sorry if this is not the correct section.

    I am new at Photoshop and i have been searching at the internet for things that will help me get started.....
    My problem is that i have gathered a lot of brushes (about 450 .abr files at my "Brushes" folder) but i can't load them all at once.If I have to search for a specific brush,it might even take me an hour because of those many clicks to load different .abr files
    Can i have a file that contains all the brushes i have and load them all at once?

    (I am not sure if you understand anything.....That's my best explanation to my problem)

    Move all your abr. files to the location where you have PS installed. For example this is where my PS is installed: C:/Programs/Adobe/Photoshop CS5/Presets/Brushes


    When you've moved them to the PS Brush map you'll now be able to open up a list with all your brushes available in PS, and switch freely between them without having to load them separately.


    ps. yes I know I have to clean up my brushes, I rarely use them at all

    This is where my brushes are installed
    ("C:/Program Files/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CS3/Presets/Brushes" for me)
    I will upload a picture like yours in 2-3 hours so you can see my problem exactly

    You can click load and open them up. Then click append and itll add it to your opened brushes.. 450 will take a while. and itll slow down your PC a lot.
    I dont see the need for all those brushes if I'm honest.

    Oh god! in order to see all 450+ brushes you need a monitor with higher resolution....... or sort them out to only keep the good ones.
    Add about 50 brushes in the bursh map, try them out and delete the ones you don't like. Move the ones you like to to another map (temporary). Start over with another 50 brushes, delete bad and move the ones you like to the other keepers map. Repeat this until you've looked at all brushes and decided which ones to keep. Now move all the brushes you liked from the temporary map to the actual Presets/Brushes map again and you'll hopefully have fewer than 450 brushes left and are able to see all of the at once on the screen.

    Do you get what I mean?
