abr brush file you want to include in your favorites, double click on the file to load it. In the Tool Options, open the Brush Picker and open the fly-out menu and choose Preset Manager.Step 1: Add Brushes to the Preset Manager Keep in mind that you still should steer clear of having a ton of brushes in this set, the more you have the more likely it will be to bog down your program, and who wants to look through hundreds of brushes anyway?! The first thing we want to do is create a brush set that includes our favorite brushes, ones we know we’ll use on a regular bases. What we are going to do is create a new Brush Preset that will permanently appear in the Brush Picker drop down menu. Once you use a brush from another set of brushes in the Brush Picker, your loaded brushes will disappear. Normally we load our brushes through the Brush Picker and they land in whatever Preset Brush Set that we had open last.
It’s not perfect and takes a couple extra steps, but I think in the long run it’s totally worth it, certainly better than having to constantly re-load your brushes. But it doesn’t slow down my computer or give me a million brushes to scroll through when looking for a particular brush! A win win in my book. So what can be done? Well, I’ve come up with a sort of ‘work-around’, a way to permanently install my regularly used and most favorite brushes so they are easy to access. Scrolling through a thousand different brush sets can slow you down and cause major frustration as well. However, keep in mind that installing brushes in this manner can overload the program and cause it to slow down when opening, as well as clutter up your Brush Picker. In Photoshop Elements as soon as you choose a different brush preset your loaded or custom brushes are gone.īrushes can be permanently installed in Photoshop Elements. Although brushes can disappear from PS as well, it happens rarely compared to Elements. That’s one of the huge benefits Photoshop has over Photoshop Elements. Not to mention the inability to organize your brushes. Those of you that use Photoshop Elements are well aware of the frustrations caused when brushes you load or create disappear from the Brush Picker.
