The way to customize a new brush in painter 8 is a little different from the previous version, where the techniques are illustrated with examples.
1. If you want to make a general brush icon, select a region of the picture with a rectangular selection. It would be a little more cumbersome to make a uniform brush icon. We first open the Painter 8 installation folder in the brush inside the brush icon jpg file, select any icon can be. Then open it in painter 8. (as shown in Figure 1.5.1)
2. Create a new 400x400 pixel blank file at the same time. Use the Eyedropper tool to draw the lower-right corner color of the icon jpg. Open the Gradlients (gradient) panel and drag the Red angle button to the lower-right corner. (as shown in Figure 1.5.2)
3. "Ctrl+f" opens "Fill" (Fill) dialog box, select "Gradlients" (gradient), press OK button to determine. (as shown in Figure 1.5.3)

5. Save this file, then in the "Layers" panel, select the "Drop" (merge) command to merge the layers. (as shown in Figure 1.5.5)
6. "Ctrl + A" All selected screen, in the Brush status bar triangle menu select "Capture Brush Category" (Capture brush type). (as shown in Figure 1.5.6)
7. Rename in the Saved dialog box. (as shown in Figure 1.5.7)
8. The captured brush appears on the brush status bar, but the default variant is only one of the same name. We need to copy some variants from other brushes to make it easier to modify the parameters and redefine the new variants. Select the "charcoal"/"charcoal" variant and select the Copy Variant (copy variant) command in the menu. (as shown in Figure 1.5.8)
9. Select the brush class for the "Menzel" (Menzel) that you just defined in the dialog box for the copy purpose. (as shown in Figure 1.5.9)
10. "Menzel" appeared in the copy over the "charcoal", "ctrl+b" open "Brush Creator", for parameter modification settings. (as shown in Figure 1.5.10)
11. Close Brush Creator, and select the command for the Save variant in the menu. (as shown in Figure 1.5.11)
12. Rename the variant according to the brush characteristics you have just defined. For 2 variants other than the new definition brush, you can delete it. (as shown in Figure 1.5.12)
