NOVEMBER 15, 2002 Weekly Download: Natural Media Brushes for Adobe Illustrator 10
Installation and download These brushes should work with Illustrator 10 on both Macintosh and Windows. As with previous downloads, you'll need to unstuff this collection using Stuffit Expander, a free utility from Aladdin Systems. You can download the Expander at http://www.aladdinsys.com/downloads/index.html. [an error occurred while processing this directive] Once you download the NagelSeries1IllBrushes.ai.sit file (below), double-click the file to expand it, or open up Expander and do it manually. Remember, the expanded file will have a .ai extension at the end, not a .sit extension. Place the expanded file into your Illustrator Brushes Presets folder (/Adobe Illustrator 10/Presets/Brushes) and relaunch Illustrator. To load the brushes, Choose Window > Brush Libraries > NagelSeries1IllBrushes. 
If the file does not appear in your list, simply choose "Other Library" from the list, and locate the file on your hard drive. 
To make these brushes accessible to your currently opened document, simply click once on each brush in the Library window. If you would like them to be accessible to all new documents, follow our tutorial from earlier this week on create custom default files for Adobe Illustrator, which you will find in our Tutorials section. (Click the Tutorials button in the left navigation frame on this site.) To access the individual brush tip shapes to create your own brushes, simply open the expanded file as you would any Illustrator file. That's it. You may now download the brushes (1.3 MB) at http://images.digitalmedianet.com/2002/11_nov/features/download7021115/NagelSeries1IllBrushes.ai.sit. Have fun!
