Description
The flames brush set has always been one of my most popular sets. I’ve seen some people do amazing things with it.Similarly, one of my most popular questions is: “How do you make your flames brushes look like they do in your preview?”
Well, not only do I give you an in-depth tutorial as an answer, but I am also providing a tool to help make it even easier to achieve those realistic flames looks that you desire. Patterns!
I can't upload those patterns here to deviantArt, however, because they are HUGE, high-resolution images (that are completely seamless, btw). So, here's the links to the items that you'll need to follow along with this tutorial.
TOOLS NEEDED:
* Flames Brushes
* Flames Patterns
The flames brushes are the same ones that are up here on deviantArt, if you'd rather grab them here (or already have them).
Hope this helps, and enjoy!

I added the patterns to the layer effects in my photoshop elements 7 folder, but when I open it, they're not in the effects panel no matter what I try to do.

This is a stupid question. I know how to download it easily enough. But how do you get it to work in you photoshop once its downloaded? I downloaded Light beams from another artist, but I don't know how to get it into my photoshop. Follow me?
