Sorry if someone mentioned this before, but a hint especially for slower and older computers. Don't keep so many brushes in Photoshop at one time, it slows it down like crazy. I also used to make sure the brushes weren't in large thumbnails before putting it to bed.

This goes for all your presets. Also keep your extra brushes in a separate folder. I don't have to worry so much now I'm on a speedy machine but a few weeks ago, Photoshop started slowing down on me, so I trimmed my presets down and it made a difference.

And I discovered I had a nice binder with thumbnail prints that I printed a few years ago and forgot! it's so neat to look at all the brushes I have and many I made that I forgot about! I pulled them all into my mac from the old machine.
