Random Photoshop Tip:
The transform selection tool is your friend. Ever had trouble getting your selection JUST right, and had to start back over again from scratch? Well, you don’t have to!
To see what I mean, try to perfectly select around a box in an image. Unless you’re really careful, you may not get it just right the first time. So choose Select > Transform Selection from the menu, and you can now expand or contract that selection to your heart’s content. You can even zoom in so that you can get it JUST right before choosing Select > Transform Selection and do it that way.
And that doesn’t just apply to boxes. You can go from a free transform (which is how it starts out) into any other kind of transform that you want by choosing Edit > Transform > *****. That even includes distort and warp!
It’s hard to explain the all of the kinds of situations where this may be useful, but I’ve found it very useful numerous times. So keep it in mind for that day that you too may need it!
These are utterly fabulous. Thanks for the great photoshop tip, as well.
Blessings~
you are the Best.

Awesome. This is very generous of you.
Thanks for these, beautiful, they enhance photography.
thank you very much! they are so beatyfull!!!
why cant i get these?
@pos: I’m not sure! The download just worked fine for me – perhaps it was a temporary issue? Let me know if you still can’t get them! (You should be clicking on “DOWNLOAD THE BRUSHES”)
well, when i tried the first time, i did try suing the imagepack lol…. but even now, when tring with the “DOWNLOAD THE BRUSHES,” all I get in the WinRAR are 3 folders; the folder that is always there and says “…” one the says “obsidian-dawn-tou.txt” and another that shows a little windows flag icon, and says “SS-celtic-vectors.abr” the .abr file, when i click on it, give me a messege that says “Windows cannot open this file….etc etc”
And when i try to simply extract it to the “brushes” folder in GIMP, it moves, and then doesnt do anything.
…in fact it does this with every brush set that ive tried…..
@pos: Okay, then you need to follow the link in my sidebar that says “Installing Brushes”. You do NOT simply click on the file to open it, that’s not how you install brushes. That would be the problem. :)
That tutorial should get you squared away, though!
=\ hmm i tried what it said (i am using GIMP) but it didnt work…. kinda a shame, cus they look like awsome brushes….
@pos: If you have GIMP 2.2.6 or newer, then these will most definitely work. It may be a question of surfing around the internet figuring out some of the little tricks to get Photoshop brushes to work in GIMP, but they most definitely work! I have a tutorial in my sidebar “Installing Brushes” that’ll get you started – also you could check the comments on that page where people have given tips, or if that doesn’t work Google it and you’ll find what you’re looking for. I’m not a GIMP user, so I can only help so much sorry!
Thank You, I’m very excited to use these
