Default brushes for CS2

[ariesfl326]

I feel kinda stupid for saying this but I can't find my default brushes!!! :o

I loaded brushes I bought online and I can see them just fine but for some reason I cannot find just the regular little circle brushes or default brushes, as I've heard them called. Super frustrated.

Any help is good help! :wub:

Click the down thing to see your brushes, then click the little arrow on that. On that menu go over and select Default Brushes.

I think I did that but I will definitely try it again. Is it possible that I could have deleted these without realizing it-not sure if this is even possible? I've had some weird things happening with PS so I don't know. I may have to reload the software. ugh!

Thanks for your help!

I don't think you can? Could you have accidentally saved over them? When you replace out brushes it asks if you want to save the current ones.

I bet you that's what I did and didn't even realize it!!! I'll go check it out. Thanks a bunch!

Here is how to restore them.

Brushes -> Load Brushes -> Navigate to your photoshop file on your hard drive (on a MAC it's under applications) -> presets -> brushes

HTH!

Thanks ladies! I actually was able to reinstall them from the software and they seem to be working fine again. Appreciate the help!
