Does anyone know what format photoshop shapes are in.  Ai?  EPS?  proprietary? Something else?  I was just wondering if you could use vector shapes written in other apps.

Thanks

Custom shape files end in .csh, I think. Not entirely sure. It's been a while since I've worked with them extensively.

But if you import paths from within Photoshop, you should be able to turn any vector shape you've created in other apps into a Custom Shape. Just go to Edit > Define Custom Shape.

Ok. Didn't know that.  Thank you very much, Aprilgem..
