How to save your photoshop brushes

Creating photoshop brushes is a lot fun, but once it came to sharing them I ran into a problem I knew how to save them, but I did not know why the hell all my brushes were 200MB big, then I understood. First of all you, if you don’t know how to save your photoshop brushes… here is a simple instruction how you can save your photoshop brushes…

You simply have to click on the spot marked in the above picture and pick the tab save brushes. Now you have saved all your existing photoshop brushes. Sounds to easy to be true, eh? You are right! It’s not that super duper easy if you actually want to share only a few custom brushes. I thought it’s possible to save single brushes simply by clicking on them. Oh poor me, how was I wrong ;)

There is one problem, you have to actually delete all the brushes that you do not want to use save right now! Go ahead and save your whole set of brushes before deleting them all! You only have to keep the brushes you want to share. Now save those remaining brushes and you have a brush set!
You can simply reload your old brushes by double clicking on your previous brush save. Tadaaaa!

After reducing my brushes to the handy set of brushes I posted yesterday, the size was down to 7 MB, which is a very shareable size nowadays. At least compared to those 200 MB it had before. Always remember to save your stuff before you delete it, otherwise it’s, well, …lost. Now go and share those brushes you have created :)
