Borders are custom made so if you want to learn how to make one refer to the Grunge tutorial on part 2-3 it will tech you how to make a border.

For the abstract brush just downlaod it go to you PS and click on your brush tool and then at the top you see and arrow on your brush tool click on that and click load brushes then find the abstract brushes.

For the render brushes. Download then open up the file and unzip it or right click extract all. Then go to you PS and click on your brush tool and then at the top you see and arrow on your brush tool click on that and click load brushes then find the render brushes.

I dont really understand. I download the brush/es. Then I extract them to "somewhere" then what? I did what you said I clicked the little arrow, but the brush wasn't there?

Okay but you have to extract the brush file to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop CS\Presets\Brushes right? I got it to work thanks.

You can extract those brushes anywhere, you just need to find them when you load brushes. Make a folder just for brushes. When you want to use a set move it there. Then go to load brushes, open the folder, and load the set.

Hi

I like it at the black and white stage. Nice and soft, not too bright or hard edged so it won't clash with the foreground.

I'll try it later.
