brush viewer

[Rhadonda]

I read all the posts about organizing brushes. Looking for any input on perhaps a free viewer? I have PC windows. Will be using PSE to scrap. If i had realized sooner i would have made a preview folder with preview pictures for brushes like Cassie does but i am now about a year down the road in collecting supplies and in too deep i guess. I did make a brush folder and put all the abr files into it, just can't see what they are. If i must i will spend the money for preset viewer that Cassie mentioned. Anyone know the difference between preset viewer 2.1 and breeze? They are the same price. Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom and experience!

A free brush viewer that I use is abrMate. You can download it HERE.

Kathy thanks so much. I downloaded the viewer and now will work on figuring out how to use it!

Is there something comparable for Mac users?

Kathy, Do you have any tips for using this viewer? I can't find any tutorials on their site for just using to preview. I think i actually lost a brush set. I am so dangerous with computer things. I just wanted something to see what the brushes were in each set. Thank you so much.

Rhadonda .... I file all my brushes in a separate folder on my C drive. I open the Brush Set I want to preview from that folder using "Open Brush Set". Then I click "Export All to Preview Panel". A pop-up will come up to select the number of columns you want for the preview. Save to the appropriate brushes folder with name of your choice.

Hope that helps.

Kathy, You were such a help. Thank you so much. I am so afraid to do things, afraid i will change a file or lose something. By the way i didn't lose a set of brushes like i thought. I am learning. I appreciate you sharing your wisdom and taking the time. I tried it and it looks great.
