ABOUT BRUSHES
Ok people, before I go on and on about brushes, let's make one thing clear, brushes are NOT tubes! I decided that I could make some brushes of my very own using the preset shapes and draw tool from psp7. If I could just make them from preset shapes/draw tool, why you are probably askin me, make them into a brush? Well I tell ya why! It cuts down on time painting, plus you can adjust the size and color and postioning of the brush if needed! Yeah and I will tell you how!

HOW TO USE BRUSHES
If you know anything about layers and use them religiously like I do, you need to make a layer before bringing up your brushes, also on your color palette you need to change the foreground color to whatever color you will want your brush to be. Second you can change the size up or down to what will fit your image. To get to all of these options you need to click on your paint brush, located on the left hand side of your tool menu in psp, looks like this:

then right click and then click on tool options, this will bring a box up, now I am using psp7 so where I am describing to you your brush types may be located somewhere other than I am tellin you if you are using a newer or older version of psp, so kind of look around for your brush types, ok now moving on...up in the top right hand corner there will be the paint brush and if you move your cursor overtop of it, it will say brush types, click on that brush and then a list will pop up and you want to click on custom. There will be your custom brushes. You will more and likely have a list of shapes there that has been there all along and you probably didn't know that they were! In psp7, there will be a shape inside of a box and around the box is an upside down arrow, left click on that arrow and your list of shapes that I was talkin about is there! If you download brushes from somewhere you will want to unzip your brushes to this location....c drive/program files/jasc paintshop pro/brushes And that's it! No worrying about exporting or anything! Nice huh?! Go ahead and try them out, they are great for making your own backgrounds too!
