[Gimp-user] Can't seem to edit brushes or save custom brushes I make.

[Wood_Goat02 <forums gimpusers com>]

woah, haven't been here in a couple years!  I've been trialing Gimp versions
since I first began to use Gimp at version 2.6. what a great program- I freely
admit I shill the GIMP whenever I get a chance; is there a mobile GIMP by
chance?

Anyway. I've recently been working on getting used to 2.10.8 and I believe I'm
missing a fundamental step in saving brushes I make, or .abr brushes (from
ps.cc). Nor can I modify the hardness of a brush. I can't go below .25 hardness
and I prefer 0 most of the time.

I use an old crusty laptop with a touchpad, 12gb ram, 1tb hd...onboard cheapo
graphics card with a sad little 2gb video ram.

It's a small cheap old laptop but has always easily run GIMP (well, some G'mic
filters will trial it).

I've placed my brushes in C:/prog files/gimp2/share/gimp/2.0/brushes; I got this
from a tutorial online.

but all I see are installed brushes, not the ones I make or .abr brush sets.

Please help me figure this out, I 'm pretty sure the path is wrong.

cheers
