I need help with the brushes and Tubes! I can DL them fine, and I even know where to put them.... BUT some don't work! Some do some don't and I don't have the slightest why they don't! (They don't even show up in my cache.) I feel like my abilities are limited cause I can't use any cool brushes and few tubes! Help please!

Have you double checked the file type? I know that a lot of the time you download what you think is a .tub file and it turns out to be a .psp file, which you have to convert into a tube yourself.

Which program are you using? I know that in psp, brushes often have to be imported through psp and not dropped in the brush folder. Let me know if you are using psp and I'll give you more info on it.

This is true, but I also would suggest not installing the tubes in the tube folder as installing too many can really slow down your computer. Also putting a file into the tube folder that is not a .tub file and then trying to use it will crash your program.

You can open tubes just like any clip art and drag and drop them into your siggy. I'm not much help on the brushes because I didn't use them much in PSP.

Sorry I missed that you mention you had psp xi in your title...

Ok so don't drop the files in your brush folder. Save them somewhere on your computer. Then in PSP,

Choose File...Import...Custom Brush. Open your brush file folder, they will appear on the left. Click add all button and they will move to the right. Click ok. Your brush should be there now, though you might have to restart your program before you see them.

hth,
