Tips On How To Stay Orginized

These are a few tips or steps to stay orginzed with your Brushes,Fonts,Filters,Others,etc. Have you have had your PS reset on you then you need to reload everything? Well thats where this technique is good for. Lets get started.

1. On you Desktop Make a Folder by pressing left on the mouse and then selecting "New>" and pick "Folder"

2. Now give your folder a name such as Photoshop Tools or whatever you feel you would like to call it.

3.Open the new folder you just made on your desktop and inside you will see nothing.

4. Now Inside the Folder you are going to make 3 more Folders. By doing the same thing you did to make them on your desktop.

5. Once you have 5 Folders you might want to name them while making them or after there all made. Name one "Fonts" which will contain all your PS fonts. Name one "Brushes" which will contain brushes. And name one "Other" or whatever other cateogie you can think of that relates with PS.

6. Once you have made the folders and named them start by taking your fonts and putting your fonts in the"Font" folder. If you see a Font that you have uploaded on PS already Rename the font by left clicking it then clicking "rename" and dont change the name of the font, just add (loaded) to it so you know you have loaded the font already.

7. Do the same for Brushes and any other folders you have made. If you want to get more specific you might want to arrange your brushes by Grunge,Tech, or Abstract to get even more orginized.

8. Remember to add (loaded) to wheather it be a brush,font,filter, etc so you know you have loaded it in PS and wont have to play a guessing game to which file you need to upload.


Heres a example of a simular way it should be set up

Photoshop Tools, inside this file is...
Brushes,inside this file is...Grunge,TEch,Abstract
Fonts...All your font go here
Other,Filters,Patterens,etc

Hope this helps some of you. It really works and helps/saves time. Hope you like this

 

I use the normal ones...but also do this. I rename all the brushes I get to reflect the type of brushes they are.

STARDUST tippy_stardust2
TECH wurklashtechpack1
ABSTRACT ocularconcepts brushes

 

This only works if you are left handed and have the mouse keys reversed, For most people it is right click. Small technicality. I need to do it myself. Brushes and fonts,filters,renders all over the place in so many folders.

 

Now you're making me wanna do that.

 

good advice

 

Already do it.

 

lol i just have one folder n chuck everything in

 

^^lol id say, i used to have organised things but scrw it, then you dont get the brushset lists

 

It would take me days to go through all my brushes and rename them.

 

true.
but its a good idea .
Also i my PS reset once but if it does it again i already have a folder with all the stuff

 

this was alot to read lol it doesnt even consern me

 

Organization, is me. I make a new folder for every signature exedra. I also package every brush into 4 catagories, tech, abstract, grunge, vector, and stars. I only have 5 brushes on my cpu.
