    open PS select brushes > go to triangle next to brush at toolbar ..click to open > select brushes you want to add (by clicking the triangle in the open box) > append

    If you change the workspace it might have just loaded default brushes

    uhm open up the window/drop box and click on the arrow, or that thingy that changes dffnt brushes, then upload the ones u downloaded.

    and if u didnt download any then do the same thing but instead of uploading click on that big list were it says Assorted Brushes, Soft Brushes, Hard etc…10pts?

    If you reset your preferences you will have to reload your brushes. If you are using Photoshop in a new user account you will have to reload them because the new account doesn’t have your preferences.

    If you performed a system restore your preferences might also have been lost.

    To load your brushes, you need to located on your computer where the files with the extension ABR are located.

    Inside of Photoshop, click on the brush tool, now on the options bars you will have a little window with a sample of the brush selected and a small arrow pointing down, click on the arrow. on the new window you will see two arrow pointing to the right on the right end, click on then and on the new menu choose ‘Load Brushes’. Navigate to where you ABR files are located and double click on them one at a time, and each one will load.
