Now you can do it yourself and create some really funky stuff. I’ve had so much fun with these. I’ve included the entire illustration so you can see how it was done.
“Looks Distorted!” If your result looks really distorted try flipping the brush. To do this:
-
Double click the selected brush in the brush pallet
-
Check Flip Along (or Flip Across)
-
Click OK
-
Click Apply to Strokes
Note: If you’ve used the brush already you may want to create a duplicate from the fly out menu and then flip the brush. That way the change does not affect the rest of your work).
Saving as a Brush Library - To save the as a Library:
-
Select Save Brush Library from the Fly out menu.
-
Save.

Life’s not easy when your mind always wanders. Sugar, caffeine, salt and contemplation beseech you. Internally hypocritical, ruled by aesthetic caprice, you dissect the actual and seduce the imaginary. Your inner turmoil plaguing you as every small (often unnoticed) success is fashioned together by a sequence of countless failures - then instantly antsy upon completion.

I can’t get these to work either. I’m using CS2, and I can save the file as a brush palette, but the palette is empty, even if I clear out all the masks and groups. I’d really like to be able to use these. Any suggestions?
[...] So now available are three versions; The full download includes the brushes and the graphic below. The Brushes Only has just the Illustrator CS brushes, and an EPS is available. Download here [...]

Hey for all the newbies.
1. Unzip the “Brushes Only” file
2 copy the “createsk8_swirlycurls_brushesonly.ai” file
3 Go to the folders… Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CS3\Presets\Brushes\
4 paste the “createsk8_swirlycurls_brushesonly.ai” file in here.
thats it, next time you run Illustrator go under Window>Brush libraries it will show there.
Have fun.
