Is it possible to sell .asl .atn .pat .psd?

I would like to know if it is possible to sell photoshop resources or earn money in some way with them (such as having them in monetized blogs or putting download links with advertising), such as .asl .atn .pat .psd and all others that I did not mention . I have seen that people sell their styles, brushes, colorings but I want to be sure that it is possible. Thanks

Yes, there are many sites that sell PSD's, Actions, Patterns, etc.

The files (psd, atn, pat, etc file types) do not have Digital Rights Management like iTunes videos/music meaning someone could just copy or give it to someone.

But yes, you can sell your own creations.

If you mean are you allow to advertise on this site  the answer is no. I do not known if linking to your own commercial advertisement is proper.  I have posted links to none Adobe Product's that I use. that I have no investment in.  The link I post may have advertisement but its not mine.

The links I post to my  Actions, Scripts and others are all free.

I do not sell, in fact I am losing my money in paying the subscription since in my country it is too much. However, in the download links of my designs I put advertising, I wanted to know if it was the same with brushes or actions. But I wanted to know if it was allowed to sell them because many people do it. :)

You can sell them, but as JJ mentioned, it's difficult to make money, and hard to protect what you are trying to sell, as they are easy to copy.

I think if you search the web you will find Photoshop assets for sale.  I do not know what advertising cost or how successful  people are selling those things.  I would never buy an action or template.  There are so many free brushes, presets, patterns, style, actions, scripts etc I think making a living selling photoshop assets would be hard for most would first look at stock sites.  Its not easy find out if some unknown seller stuff is good or not.
