I have been looking forever for some grungy type brushes to use in PSE2 or 3. I find a lot for Photoshop, but haven't seen any for PSE2 or 3. Anybody know where I can find some either free or to buy?

Thanks!
Tracy

Most of the Photoshop brushes will work with PSE. You just have to try them. I have also been able to change the .jbr extension to .abr, but that doesn't always work. These are some of the grunge brushes I use in PSE:

Any abr file will work in PS or PSE. The abr stands for Adobe BRush (and jbr stands for Jasc BRush). Just save them in your Presets>Brushes folder and they'll be in your drop down list, or you can save them anywhere and hit Load Brushes and browse to the file. I haven't loaded any abr I downloaded for PS not work in PSE, they're all fine.

Have fun brush hunting! TONS of fun stuff out there :) I love www.truly-sarah.com

Good to see you around again :D

Hi Emma! I tried to access truly sarah but I can't. I can click on her "entrance" screen but then I get a screen with just a box on it and nothing else - no text, no links to click, no scroll bars, nothing. I've tried for days. She must use some sort of program for her website that my computer can't read (right?)

You don't get words at the top of the box, Andy? I didn't notice them at first, because they are a light tan, but if you click on "Graphics", it will take you to the page.

No - I don't see anything. When I click on Emma's link, I get the entrance page. When I click on Entrance, I get a page that says A new Beginning Truly Sarah with a rectangular box underneath with gorgeous flowers/butterflies beside it. That's it. No other words - I move my mouse all over the place and there's nothing to click on. No scroll bars either.

I tried for several days, thinking maybe the site was having problems. I guess it's me! But, I don't think I have problems with any other site.

Thanks so much for the links! I have downloaded a few to try.

Emma--I am looking forward to your PSE Elements class in Feb. I'll be there. :-)

Andy: I'm not sure why the site isn't working for you, and I can't even find a way to contact her. When you enter, you are seeing the right thing with the flowers and box, but insde the box are words that say Updates, Self, Domain, Graphics, and Exit. They're at the top, center. You don't even get the hand to appear when you mouse over that area to indicate a link?
Try this direct link instead:
http://truly-sarah.com/main/graphics.htm
and click Photoshop Brushes

or if that doesn't work, try this
http://trulysarah.deviantart.com/
it's her Deviant Art member site where she offers brushes too, not all of the ones on her site, but a few.

Looking forward to seeing you in class, Tracy! It's for PS users too if they're interested, just specifically for PSE with PSE shots. Have fun getting some grungy brushes!

Emma - the first direct link you provided above works. I have no idea why I can't get through the normal way. THere are no words in that rectangular box - it's just empty. My cursor doesn't even change to a hand when I move over that box, and I went over ever milimeter, slowly, just to make sure. I can't figure it out!
