Download and installation
This week's brush collection is compressed using Stuffit from Aladdin Systems. The Stuffit Expander is a free utility for Macintosh, Linux, Windows and Solaris that can be downloaded here. Chances are you already have it on your system. If not, download and install it. You can also configure your browser to decompress files of the ".sit" type automatically using Expander.

Download: Nagel Series 7 Brushes (480 KB)[an error occurred while processing this directive]Once you download the brush file (NagelSeries7Brushes.sit), double-click the file to decompress it, or drag it over the Stuffit Expander application icon.

After the file is decompressed (NagelSeries7Brushes.abr), move it into the Brushes directory in your Photoshop 7 folder (/Adobe Photoshop 7/Presets/Brushes).



Then launch Photoshop. Open your Brushes palette, and click on the flyaway menu at the top right. There you'll find the new brush collection, which you can install simply by selecting it. After you select it, the new brushes will appear at the bottom of the list of available brushes.



If you'd like to move these upward (or delete any individual brushes you might not care for), choose Edit > Preset Manager. From within the Preset Manager, you can manipulate these brushes as you see fit.

That's it. If you have any questions, be sure to visit me in our Adobe Photoshop forum here.
