In this section i will every week display a feature, trick or any other thing that is usefull in Photoshop. A new text is displayed
every other week. The text for the following two weeks will explain how to make your own brushes. On the bottom om this
page you will later be able to read the old extras too.

1. Creating your own brushes in Photoshop is easy. Open a new file and open the brush Palette by double-clicking on the
brush tool on the toolbar. You can create brushes upp to 999x999 pixels but brushes that big will never be usefull

2. For this example I opened a file 120x120 pixels, and made a new layer. The new layer was filled with Noise with the
Monochrome setting Filters > Add noise > Noise. This was repeated 2 times.
Then I applied the ?????filter Filter > Add Noise > ????


3. To get soft edges on the brush select a area and select Select > Feather, then Select, Inverse. Fill the selection with
wite.


4. Now select an area for your brush. In my example a round selection. Then, from the flyout menu on the Brush Palette,
Select Define Brush. A new icon will now appear on the Brush palette. You can save the new brush by selecting Save
Brush from the flyout menu on the Brush palette.

Notes: You can allways delete the brush by by selecting Delete Brush from the flyout menu on the Brush Palette.
