Found a Brush Previewer- See thumbnails of all your brushes in your file explorer

WINDOWS ONLY

Argus Preset Viewer (google it) $10.    Download, extract, click on the full install link in the popup menu.

It allows you to view brush thumbnails, any thumbnails actually in your preset folder- brushes and shapes in particular- in your file explorer.   Adobe says there is no software to view brush thumbnails, BUT THIS IS IT! 

I generally don't mess with add ons / actions /presets type stuff for PSE, but this product "Argus Preset Viewer" does exactely what I needed / wanted, which is something Adobe says does not exist "Software to view brush thumbnails."

I have hundreds of brush sets, many are garbage, not worth the download- but with this program I can see all the brush thumbnails without having to start any Adobe program.   

It's built into your file explorer, after you click on the exe file. 

I have a bunch of custom swatches installed in other versions of PSE.   I will search for them, and put them all in one folder I can find.   Then I copy and paste that folders' contents into all my versions of PSE I have installed.
