Hey all,
I was wondering whether anyone here at CJ creates there own brushes in GIMP?
If so do you upload them to Deviantart or any other sites, and reckon you could stick up some links? I'm in the middle of making alphabet brushes, il upload to Deviantart and post a link here for you all to check out

Well since it appears no one here makes there own Gimp brushes, does anyone know of a forum specifically for gimp related topics, containing everything from brushes to tutorials?

Gimp is the free alternative to Photoshop.
Wiki:

Quote:

The GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program, previously General Image Manipulation Program) is a free software, raster graphics editor used to process digital graphics and photographs. Typical uses include creating graphics and logos, resizing and cropping photos, altering colors, combining multiple images, removing unwanted image components, and converting between different image formats.[2] Along with these uses, GIMP is widely used as a tool for photo enhancement. GIMP can also be used to create basic animated images in GIF format. It is often used as a replacement for Adobe Photoshop, the most widely used bitmap editor in the printing and graphics industries; however, it is not designed to be a Photoshop clone.[3] The project's mascot is named Wilber.
The project was started in 1995 by Spencer Kimball and Peter Mattis and is now maintained by a group of volunteers under the auspices of the GNOME Project.[4] The current version of GIMP works with numerous operating systems, including most Unix variants, Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X. Released under the terms of the GNU General Public License, the GIMP is free software.
