    These are really cool! I'm not sure if I'll be able to use them anytime soon, but thank you I saved them I'll be sure to mention where I got them from when I use them.

    I'm not sure how others do it, but when I want to make a brush in GIMP I select the item I wish to make into a brush, and then ctrl-c to copy it, then in the edit menu go to Paste As... --> New Brush and voila!

    Thanks for the explanation Lithia
    I was hoping someone who knows GIMP would pop in and have an answer.

    Another options is there is a brush called clipboard, which lets you copy anything (including areas with transparency) and then use it as a brush for pretty much any of the tools. (Ditto for patterns for fills).
