Getting Photoshop to the height potential is a hard thing. Plug-ins, brushes, styles, illustrator shapes, they all came at a cost most of the time.

Have you ever tried to expand the capabilities of your Photoshop? I guess so. Have you ever wanted this for free? If so read on, because you will find 4 of the coolest resource sites that you can find out there.

Over the past 3 years, I have been using Photoshop for personal hobbies and now I am starting to use it as a way of earning online. In the last few months I have discovered something interesting. Meany times the quality of the design isn’t determined by the extra tricks (plug-ins). It is determined by the use of them. So rather than spending money on the paid resources that are available out there, I recommend that you try to use the free ones.
It is true that the quality free resources are harder to find. They have less advertising budget so you might be luck to find a really good site like that.

I have a list of over 100 resources sites, but right now we will talk only about 4 that I considered most useful in the last months.

I will start with the big bad popular Deviant Art. Brushes, Vector Arts, Textures, Tutorials all! One thing to keep in mind though, they have a lost of garbage there. Not all the submissions are of high quality.



A more select site that has only brushes and sometimes high quality ones is getBrushes.com. I used some of their brushes in my designs, and I was pleased by them. Not to pleased, but hey, It FREE!.



The last two are twins. One of those to has brushes, the other one vector graphics, and they both look alike. Brusheezy and Vecteezy. Those two sites have quality resources. I think that I can say they have the “Best of the Best Free Brushes Out There”.

So again, the 4 sites are:

• DeviantArt
• GetBrushes
• Brusheezy
• Vecteezy

Now start downloading your free resources and have fun and enjoy using them. I hope you found this useful for ya!
