Adobe Photoshop 5: Create a Brush from an Image

 

 
1. Click on the Rectangular Marquee tool and select an area of a picture not more than 1,000 2 pixels 

2. On the Brushes palette choose Define Brush. The new brush will be added after the last brush tip on the palette.

3. You can now use the Paintbrush tool to paint with your selection. For a single copy just click once. For multiple copies, drag your mouse. In the example the images overlap.
