Gimp Leaf Brushes

Description

---DESCRIPTION---
Here is a lovely set of leaf brush I made for gimp. These are made completely from my own resources. I did look up some info about how to save .gih files and I got some help with my gimp wanting to crash because they were too big, but that's it. The shapes for the leaves come from two of my own photos and the pen, selection, and mask tools in gimp. I have spent all day the past 2 to 3 days on these brushes. A lot of hard work, time, effort, and frustration went into these. I hope everyone enjoys them!

---NOTICE---
The zip file is 2.2 MB. There are MANY brushes in here, as well as A LOT of extra stuffs I thought everyone might like to have: dynamics settings, tool presets, gradients, palettes, and the preview images (all of which I created myself). Everything is contained within its own folder, and there is a .txt file that talks all about this download. 

---TERMS---
Please favorite if you download. Don't use them in any way that implies that you are the creator of any of the files within this zip folder. Have fun and enjoy them! Use them in any of your work, free of charge! You do not have to credit me, but it is appreciated if you do. 

---THE FRUSTRATION---
So, I spent all day the past two days making a few brushes... and by a few... I mean at least 14. I started with my own photos, extruded a leaf from each one, and went on to make the silhouettes for the brushes. I had to perform a lot of actions: cropping, rotating, flipping, etc. One I finished them all, I put them all into gimp. They all worked. Then I closed out gimp and went to bed. After I woke up the next day and opened gimp, I was met with a terrible irritant.... GIMP CRASHED. I Backed up all my files, and ultimately deleted the gimp user directory, and put everything back, one by one. I found out the problem was my brushes I just made. I spent all morning this morning searching for the information I needed to fix the problem. Luckily, the guys over at GimpChat.com were very helpful! It turns out that the problem was that the animated brushes were just too large in canvas dimensions. I fixed that, and now, after 3 whole days of work and frustration, I have a set of bushes and extras to share with the rest of you! :D

Thank you for putting all this work into these brushes. I would like to decorate my abandoned alchemist's den map with some of them :)
