Importing Custom Brushes

#1

I’d like to do custom brushes for Silo displacement work but don’t know how to go about this, and I can’t find anything in the user manual on importing brushes. Can anyone point me in the right direction please?

Shift t will bring up the brush editor. You can load up an image there.

Thanks very much for the reply Cinnsealach. I’m not understanding how this works still though - if I click either ‘Import’ or ‘Load’ it expects a .sip format file. If I have an alpha image how would I import that to use as a brush? Or how would I go about creating a .sip format brush?

EDIT: I just figured it out - I have to load an image via the ‘Image’ slot, not Load or Import.
