To make a brush available, place it in one of the folders in GIMP's brush search path. By default, the brush search path includes two folders, the system brushes folder, which you should not use or alter, and the brushes folder inside your personal GIMP directory. You can add new folders to the brush search path using the Brush Folders page of the Preferences dialog. In gimp preferences, go to 'Folders' click the + and then select 'Brushes' it will show you one folder that can be opened by selecting it then clicking the button circled in red. To access this folder outside of this preferences menu, you have to go to Applications, RIGHT click.

Where are GIMP 2.10 Files on Mac?
I have now downloaded GIMP 2.10 three times. I am using a MacBook Pro, Mid 2012, running Mojave. The initial download is smooth, no probs. Click the DNG file and you are brought an Install Drive. Click that and there is a window with the GIMP icon to drag to Applications folder. The Application is in the folder, all 426 MB of it. I only discovered this problem after wanting to add new brushes. When I go to my Library, in the GIMP folder, there is only the old files for 2.8. No folders anywhere for 2.10! I added my brushes to that folder just to see if somehow 2.10 was using its contents, but no go. So where might I access GIMP's folders, if they are not in my Library?
Any clues? Any guesses? Any help would be appreciated. I am enjoying the new look, and functionality of 2.10, and I really don't want to go back.
Thanks in advance..

Adding Brushes In Gimp
I found a solution!
Under to 'user folder'/Library/Application Support/GIMP/2.10, I made a newfolder labeled 'brushes' then copied my abr files into it.
Restarted the application and they are all present!
i have also discovered an alternative!
in gimp preferences, go to 'Folders' click the + and then select 'Brushes'
it will show you one folder that can be opened by selecting it then clicking thebutton circled in red.
to access this folder outside of this preferences menu, you have to go toApplications, RIGHT click the gimp application and 'Show Package Contents.' thenfollow: Content/Resources/share/gimp/2.0 and you will find a plethora offolders! you could make a shortcut to this folder in finder.

There is a quick method to add a new brush: Section 9.2, “Creating a brush quickly”. |
To add a new brush, after either creating or downloading it, you need to save it in a format GIMP can use. The brush file needs to be placed in the GIMP's brush search path, so that GIMP is able to index and display it in the Brushes dialog. You can hit the button, which reindexes the brush directory. GIMP uses three file formats for brushes:
How To Download Brushes To Gimp On Mac Pro
The
.gbr
('gimp brush') format is used for ordinary and color brushes. You can convert many other types of images, including many brushes used by other programs, into GIMP brushes by opening them in GIMP and saving them with file names ending in .gbr
. This brings up a dialog box in which you can set the default Spacing for the brush. A more complete description of the GBR file format can be found in the file gbr.txt
in the devel-docs
directory of the GIMP source distribution. ![How To Download Brushes To Gimp On Mac How To Download Brushes To Gimp On Mac](/uploads/1/3/3/2/133275897/104204282.jpg)
Figure 7.17. Save a
.gbr
brush The
.gih
('gimp image hose') format is used for animated brushes. These brushes are constructed from images containing multiple layers: each layer may contain multiple brush-shapes, arranged in a grid. When you save an image as a .gih
file, a dialog comes up that allows you to describe the format of the brush. Look at The GIH dialog box for more information about the dialog. The GIH format is rather complicated: a complete description can be found in the file gih.txt
in the devel-docs
directory of the GIMP source distribution. The
.vbr
format is used for parametric brushes, i. e., brushes created using the Brush Editor. There is really no other meaningful way of obtaining files in this format. The
.myb
format is used for MyPaint brushes. Please refer to Section 3.8, “MyPaint Brush” for more information. Free Gimp Brushes Download
To make a brush available, place it in one of the folders in GIMP's brush search path. By default, the brush search path includes two folders, the system
brushes
folder, which you should not use or alter, and the brushes
folder inside your personal GIMP directory. You can add new folders to the brush search path using the Brush Folders page of the Preferences dialog. Any GBR, GIH, or VBR file included in a folder in the brush search path will show up in the Brushes dialog the next time you start GIMP, or as soon as you press the button in the Brushes dialog.

When you create a new parametric brush using the Brush Editor, it is automatically saved in your personal brushes folder. |

There are a number of web sites with downloadable collections of GIMP brushes. Rather than supplying a list of links that will soon be out of date, the best advice is to do a search with your favorite search engine for “GIMP brushes”. There are also many collections of brushes for other programs with painting functionality. Some can be converted easily into GIMP brushes, some require special conversion utilities, and some cannot be converted at all. Most fancy procedural brush types fall into the last category. If you need to know, look around on the web, and if you don't find anything, look for an expert to ask.
