To make a image into a brush: (thank you!!)

-Open the picture
-use the selection tool(marching ants) to select what you want to be the brush
-go to File>Export>custom Brush
-and then type in what you want to call it.


a link back is required. please do so. i also enjoy reading comment or seeing the work you've created with my brushes!! hint, hint...

need a more detailed way to make a brush? here:

to make PSP ( i don't know how in photoshop, sorry... though i'm sure it's somewhat the same ) brushes from these images, open this image in psp, click the selection tool ( you know, the marching ants!! ) and select only the image you want to be a SINGLE brush, ( you can use the lasso tool for a free handed selection ) and then you click brushes icon. as you browse to find a brush, you'll see that there is an icon on the right hand side of the bottom part of the browser. an icon of the little marching ants around a paintbrush. you've selected to create a brush from the selection you've made. type in any title, and wah-la! a brush.
