<div class="moz-cite-prefix">I managed to get a couple of brush sets
from those links. I found the link that worked was on right hand
side about 1/3 way down the page simply click the word "Download"<br>
<br>
worked for Gimp 2.6 as well just extract the files and copy to the
hidden gimp brushes folder in ur linux home folder.<br>
<br>
Haven't tried photshop elements yet to see if they work there.<br>

Neither is working for me.<br>

I keep hearing about all this great stuff that is
available for Gimp, but I can't download so much as a

Good thing I know how to make my own brushes -- I can just
sit cross-legged here in the corner and make my own while
the rest of you play nicely together.<br>

Well, one of my attempts got me something
with a .gbr extension, but putting it in my
gimp2.8 brush folder doesn't seem to have
made any difference.<br>

I click on the links at deviantart and nothing
seems to happen.<br>

I suppose there is some way to search for
brushes on torrents so I can use transmission,
but I don't know how to do that, either.<br>
</div>
The instructions at Lifehacker say "just search."<br>
</div>
How do you search in transmission? I just know how
to start it from a seed; a seed I download in the
usual manner.<br>
</div>
I disabled noscript in Firefox and when that didn't
help I installed and tried Chromium. No Joy.<br>

Transmission is a program specifically for using
bittorrent. If you<br>
have downloaded a file that is not a .torrent file
you don't need to<br>
use Transmission, you already have the file you
want.<br>

Perhaps the file you have downloaded is an archive
of some sort (zip,<br>
rar, gz etc.) that you need to uncompress. I'm not
sure exactly which<br>
tool you would use to do that in xfce (the desktop
environment that<br>
ubuntustudio uses), but you might be able to just
right click on it<br>
(in your downloads folder) and click "extract
here" or something<br>
similar.<br>
