Description
Icing brushes for The Gimp. I used version 2.2 to make them but they should work on other versions.To write with them use the 'create path from text' option, then use painbrush to stroke the path.
Have fun!!!

The download button should be working, I just checked it. It should load a compressed .zip file which you will need to extract. Here is a link to the tutorial for Installing a Pre-made Brush
Any probs, let me know :smile:

Wow, great brushes! Β I downloaded GIMP today to be able to use your icing brushes and the rest of your sets. Since I saw your Β icing brushes the first time I tried my own set in Paint Shop Pro from a tutorial but the result is not as realistic looking as yours, well done and many thanks!!Β Β

Hi Caff,
My icing sets is up for grabs at my blog with a link to 4Shared. Β But they are Paint Shop Pro tubes format. Β The previews show some results. Β You can check them here: launok.blogspot.com
It is actually a long time that I have done any 2D related stuff as I am lately more into 3D but from time to time I love doing making scrapbook use freebies, etc. Β

I am really interested in the way you created these brushes. When I convert them to use in photoshop, the brushes behave differently. In photoshop the brush image is "stamped" repeatedly, so you get a horrible effect that looks nothing like icing. But in Gimp the icing effect is brilliant as Gimp almost smudges the brush rather than repeating the image. I know that what I've just written probably makes no sense at all! But I really want to know how to get photoshop brushes to behave like Gimp brushes. If anyone can give me an explanation I would be really grateful!

In the Gimp there is a 'spacing' setting on the brushes panel which determines how closely the images are stacked. '1' is one pixel apart and so on. I don't have photoshop so I don't know how to convert them. But look for spacing settings and I think it will work.
Good luck!

Hi anokes!
To elaborate on my original comment, make sure you:
*create a new picture with at least one layer (best to use a transparent layer as you can add a background later without affecting the rest of your work)
*create text - this will make a text layer (preferrably use dingbat or joined up font)
*in the text dialogue click 'create path from text'
*in the 'layers,channels,paths' dock (layers dialogue) un-click the eye next to the text layer, then click on the blank layer.
*in the brushes dialogue, select the brush you want to use i.e. icing
*in the paths dialogue, click 'stroke path', then select 'paintbrush' to stroke the path and click ok.
When in doubt, muck around in gimp to see what works!!!
