Photshop Brushes 2


I thought I had found the best site for brushes, which I posted earlier. Guess not.
Scouring the web I have come across a few more. Here follow a few links

PSBrushes
Categorized and very practical.

Brusheezy


MyPhotoshopBrushes.com
Also categorized with instructions on 'How to install'

brushes.500ml.org
These are actually more like Stamps then brushes. It's best to just click when using these 'brushes' instead of dragging.

Saving the best for last.
At the link below you can find brushes that are 2500 pixels wide! Ideal for water colors or other painterly effects. This site also has vector brushes for Illustrator.This is the link for Photoshop brushes

Here are a few handy keyboard shortcuts when using brushes.

Type B = selects Brush Tool

Brush diameter
[-key = smaller brush diameter
]-key = larger brush diameter

Hardness
Shift + [ = softens brushes
Shift + ] = increases hardness

Opacity
Type 1 = 10%
Type 2 = 20%
etc.
Type 0 = 100%
Type a quick 65 = 65%

Straight lines

Drag while holding down the Shift key = horizontal or vertical stroke
Click while holding down the Shift = a straight stroke between clicks
