The advanced shape contest is running :) For those of you who need an idea, I have one little one in my suggestion kit. CREATE A SHAPE FOR A BRUSH.

OK, create a new document 200 x 200 pixels, res. 72. Open the shape from the theme post. Select the shape and fill with black. copy and paste it into the 200x200 box you created earlier, or use the move tool and simply move it to your new box. Cntrl+T (transform), then Cntrl 0. resize it to fit into your little 200x200 box. Then Edit>New brush shape. Name it and you're good to go. Play around a little with the brush dialog box, and options. Color dynamics, smoothing, brush tip shape. You'll have a ball. Experiment in your new file on a separate layer, and discard if necessary.

Have fun!

What a great idea Jaygre! This is the closest I have ever come to understanding how to make my own brushes!
