Artist's Comments

This is Part 1 of a 3 Part series on creating brushes in GIMP. Part 2 can be found here: [link] and Part 3 can be found here: [link] The tutorials do not explain specific types of brushes (grunge, abstract, vector, etc.), but rather focus on GIMP's 2 formats: gbr and gih.

The tutorials are in htm format. Click on the Download to Desktop button, double-click the zip file, save the folder and htm file to a convenient location and double-click on the htm file to view the tutorial at your own pace.

Comments and questions are always welcome.

Enjoy! Happy GIMPing!

No, it's strictly GIMP related. It discusses the different kinds of GIMP brushes and how to make them.

This is a great tutorial, and I'm really glad that there's a fellow GIMP artist out there who's willing to make tutorials.

Unfortunately, something must be wrong with my GIMP, because I did everything that you said in the tutorial, and when I refreshed my brushes dialog, my lightning brush didn't show up. Is there something else I need to do, or is my program just being buggy? I saved the brush in my brushes folder, but it didn't work. I even used the non-animated brush extension for the file. I'm going to try to fool around with it a bit, but is there anything you could suggest?

Hmmm...it's probably something very simple. Are you sure you put them in the correct brush folder? What's the path loaction where you placed them? It should look something like this: C:\Program Files\GIMP-2.0\share\gimp\2.0\brushes

If you can't get it to work, send me a copy of the brush file and I'll look at it and let you know if there's anything wrong with it. Just upload it to megaupload.com or some other file sharing site and send me the link they give you.

Cheers!
