Frequently Asked Questions

Each resource has its own license, chosen by its author and displayed on the resource page. Some licenses allow commercial use, while others are restricted to personal projects only. Always check the license before using a resource.

If you plan to use a resource in a commercial project, please respect the author's terms. When in doubt, reach out to the author directly — their profile is linked on every resource page.

Our resources come from hundreds of talented artists and passionate designers from all over the world. Every author has a dedicated profile page where you can see all of their published work and find links to their websites and social media.

We always welcome new contributors — if you create Photoshop brushes, patterns, textures, or other resources, we'd love to feature your work.

Head over to our submission form and follow the instructions. You will need to provide a preview image, the resource file, and select an appropriate license.

Please review our Community Guidelines before submitting. All submissions are reviewed by our moderation team and you will be notified once your resource is approved.

It depends on the license. Some licenses require attribution, others do not. Check the license on the resource page for details. That said, we always encourage crediting the original author — it's a great way to support the community.

No. You may not redistribute or resell resources as standalone files or as part of a competing resource library. Resources are provided for use in your own projects. For full details, see our Terms of Use.

If you believe that any resource on this site infringes your intellectual property, please contact us with detailed information about the alleged infringement. We take these matters seriously and will investigate promptly.

Open Photoshop, go to Edit > Presets > Preset Manager (or Window > Brushes in newer versions). Click Load, navigate to the downloaded .abr file, and click Open. The brushes will appear in your Brushes panel ready to use.

In Photoshop CC 2018 and later you can also double-click the .abr file to install it directly.

Open Photoshop and go to Edit > Presets > Preset Manager. Select Patterns from the dropdown, click Load, and choose the .pat file. Your new patterns will appear when you use the Paint Bucket tool or Layer Style > Pattern Overlay.

We offer ABR (Photoshop brushes), PAT (patterns), PSD (layered Photoshop files), CSH (custom shapes), ASL (layer styles), GRD (gradients), and high-resolution JPG/PNG textures and images. Each resource page shows the file format and size before you download.

Most resources work with Photoshop CS6 and all Creative Cloud versions (CC 2014 through the latest release). ABR brushes created in newer versions may not open in CS5 or earlier. PSD files, patterns, and textures are broadly compatible across all versions. Check the resource description for any specific version requirements.

It depends on the license attached to each resource. Many resources on this site are available for both personal and commercial use, but some are limited to personal use only. Always check the license displayed on the resource page before using it in client work or commercial products.
