A question about photoshop

Hello everyone! I have been looking throughout the site, and I've been seeing some really nice fireworks in some of the cities that are not Maxis fireworks! I was wondering how you would photoshop those onto the pictures. I'm pretty good with Photoshop already, so I can probably do it if its complicated. Thank you!

I think most people use photoshop brushes.

Deviant art is a good place to get some nice ones - http://www.deviantart.com/#catpath=resources&order=9&q=firework+photoshop+brushes

Thank you!

thanks mike was just gonna suggest that as well

all my fireworks in my CJ are from brushes I found on deviant art

It never even crossed my mind to use brushes!! I settled for some home made, stylised inkscape ones that didn't quite work!

Thanks for the tip off though!

Thank you, everyone! Your help is greatly appreciated!

Wait, I'm having a bit of a problem. When ever I download them, they dont show up in photoshop, not even the ones that are already out of the zip file. How do I download them? Is there anything I need? Thanks again!

Best bet is to search for a read me with the brushes you downloaded or search the net for a tutorial on how to install it took me a bit of trial and error to get brushes into GIMP

also make sure that Photoshop isn't running when your installing if it is you'll have to restart Photoshop. Hope I helped a bit.

Adam, if you open up photoshop, go to the brushes menu, and you should a panel that comes out from the top of the PS with the brushes on the bottom of that panel.

On the right side of that panel is a tiny circle with an arrow pointing right, click on that and there should be a menu that comes out. Go to load brushes and located your brushes and viola, there's your brushes

Oh and make sure you unzip the brushes you download

Thank you everyone! They are now working, and without your help, I never would have been able to! Thanks again!
