Hi All,

Im new to this forum, and i have recently downloaded so really cool Smoke brush effects but everytime i come to use them it only gives me a default colour of Gray :(

Can someone tell me how i can change the colour of the brushes....

Again sorry for something so simple to the experts :(

Thanks :)
 
you should be able to just click any colour I use smoke brushes all the time no problem
check your image settings is not set to grey scale
image>mode>RGB colour hopefully
 
Hi Sorry for another question

But do you know where i can get a smoke brush set identical to the one i have attached......

Thanks again for your help.

open up this image
go to select>all
then go to Edit > define brush preset it will ask you to name it then go to your brush selection window will be the last brush on there
 
that is instructions to create your own brush using an image you provided if you had not worked it out yet lol
 
Now iv only been using photoshop for about two weeks but i get the feeling im going to learn alot from this forum especially if everyone on this forum is like you Hoogleman!! Thanks again!
 
I dont think we have failed answering any questions yet and I know if I personally dont know something I will keep trying until I do know it to pass it on I like a challenge
 
Sounds good :) reason i asked about how to change the colour of smoke effects and anything else really, is because im creating a website and i want the smoke effect to come in from one side, but again its just trying to find that ideal brush to make what i think a reality.

**Update**

Is there a way of change how a brush looks, for example change the way the smoke is going without changing the hole brush if that makes sense?

if you go to windows>brush you will see a contral panel come up that lets you edit the brush directio rotation flip horizontal/ vertical etc 1 brush can have a 1000 different outcomes you can also change different lengths from if you click and drag a brush to have it repeat the brush 1 time per inch or 1000 times
 
yeah sure its like blending options, you can change value's at brush presets
 
The brush i put a picture up of would have been ideal, but at the end of the brush it has a square finish...if that makes sense it doesnt gradually fade out is there a way i can change this?

if you can see this, just select the option that you want to edit (with those green vinks at the left) and the value's are then visible
