Re: installing new brushes on The GIMP??
thanks but i need to know how to copy before i can copy
if you are in gnome its
if you are in gnome its simple. Open your home folder (places menu) notice that all files starting with a dot are invisible files, to make them visible just press "ctrl + H" after you have done that you will see several folders and files.
JUst navigate to the folder named ".gimp-2.2" and then to the folder "brushes" inside that folder copy the brushes you need by copy paste (ctrl + c , ctrl +v) or drag and drop :].
BTW: on a terminal to see the folder "ls -a" and to copy use the "cp" command like "cp -vi folder/from/archive/to/copy.gbr .gimp-2.2/brushes/"

i don't use Ubuntu so i would'nt know the exact path, try using the serach fucntion to find a folder named Brushes and copy your brush files in there.
hope that helps.
