No ABR file to install library brushes from 372 free grunge and grit brushes

Explorer ,
Dec 05, 2024 Dec 05, 2024

How do I use these with Photoshop? I've clicked add to library, and they are in my creative cloud library, but I see no way to get them to open in Photoshop; Photoshop does not have them when I open the program. 

The spring 2024 package does have the ABR file, but this page https://creativecloud.adobe.com/cc/discover/article/372-free-grunge-and-grit-brushes-for-photoshop just adds them to the library, and the library has no interface to find where the ABR is stored, and Photoshop seems to have no way to link the two.

Also for web design, the 1140 pixel image file is too small; I am viewing at 200%, and it is not ideal, nor is making the image 2280 pixel. What happened to the 2x mode Photoshop used to have in get info for retina and higher dpi macs? That would make the canvas bigger, and including the user interface?

Thanks again.

Hey, @SB-W . I'll help you figure this out. 

These albums are auto-added to your Creative Cloud Libraries with the Adobe Account you're signed in to on the Web page and in Photoshop.  

In Photoshop, go to Window > Libraries & check if the Brushes appear in the Library panel as shown below. 

 

 

Let me know if this helps. Thanks!

@Sameer K 

Hey, thank you so much! Will you please pass on the feedback of having Creative Cloud provide a more intuitive way to get them to the brush panels from the creative app itself by either an "add to brushes" under the 3 dots or "download abr file"? or selecting which ones you want to add with the small check box and then clicking "Add to brushes."?

Also, the 372 grunge brushes had about 20 texture PSDs that are roughly 3:5 aspect ratio give or take, that would work as a texture via 'define pattern'. Do I have to create actions to define each one as a pattern, or is there a way to quickly add them as patterns or textures too?

Thanks. I tried googling, and this was not easy to find; I had to come here.

@Sameer K Any help with the web design issue on high dpi screens? I do not really like making the image 2280px or zooming in 2x. What do designers do about this when using photoshop for pixel perfect work?
