Wow! This many! And for free, thanks! Screw Photoshop! :D
I agree! I love GIMP and these brushes! :D
Sweet, although I’m still a photoshop guy :)
Impressive list as usual. I’ll spend hours just working the header image on my site and although I love the GIMP project — and think it’s a fantastic alternative to Photoshop — I personally found it quite unintuitive to use as a beginner. Maybe it’s because my brain space already well populated with the way Adobe does things.
Why don’t you go back to using Photoshop then?
I think GIMP will rock in the near future! :D
what do you mean in the future? Gimp rocks now…..
Wow, nice collection. Some are available in Photoshop as well. The nice thing of GIMP is that it reads Photoshop Brushes as well, but not the other way around ;-)
nice
wow i like the this collection of gimp brushes.
Great Collection. Thanks

And one hopes that even more GIMP brushes will be created so that this time next year there will be a thousand more. Yay for GIMP!
GIMP 2.4 and above fully support PS .abr brushes so there the days of GIMP specific are over.
I see “vector”, but not “SVG” ?!
What’s this other format?
Great collection. Can’t wait to try them out.
cheers !
Wow, nice list. This is definitely bookmark worthy, thanks.
Very useful resource, thank you very much. Gimp has some usability problems as compared to Photoshop, but can do a great job once you get used to it.
Please note that Photoshop brushes (*.abr) work perfectly with Gimp, though. I use tons of them.
thanks,its helpful.
Thanks for these! Can’t wait to play with them.
Nice collection
