Hi,

I have some brushes I would like to eventually put in market place but I would like to know how big to make them, some of the images are quite large and I am not sure people would want them that big, also if you scale down a brush do you lose a lot of the image quality?

Thanks,

Debbie

I make my brushes to 2500, and I don't notice loss of image quality.  I make some very large paintings, so quality large brushes are important to me.

I use brushes of all sizes - just depends on what I'm trying to do. 

I don't notice a loss of image when I scale a brush down and, because they're brushes, you don't lose quality, either.

I'm a pretty big brush-a-holic when it comes to PS CS2 but I do know there is a size limit for PSP.

If you make the brushes in PS 7 CS2 will read them and use them.  I have a lot of PS 7 brushes that work just fine.
