We are making some major changes
here. So this is the
beginning.
Graphix Brew Coming Back!
Welcome back!
Graphix Brew is going to be coming back within the next few weeks. We will be updating the site with a PackGen that will be full of fonts, brushes, renders, and even PSDs! Continually check back for more and more updates and let's have the community grow!
*S.O.T.W. #1 will begin this week. Be sure to check the forums for details and be sure to enter!
Graphix Brew is also going to start a free signature section, where anyone can use the signatures that are posted there. You can find them in the "Gift" section in the forums. The first one is up, and here's a sneak peak!

Well sorry we were gone. Please be patient with the staff as we go through new updates. The Brew should be back up for a few weeks unless we come across more needed fixes. At least we can add more news for you now.

Well we are back! Thanks to MonkeyMaximus (I bother that man constantly for you members) the news maker is back up. Over the past week or so when we tried to post some news it would give a file permission error. Now it is fixed
so expect some updates on all of your favorite consoles.

For those of you who don't know GIMP is a free, photo-editing program similar to Photoshop. It consists of similar tools and can perform some of the Photoshop tutorials in the Tutorials section here at graphixBrew. To download GIMP visit www.gimp.org and continue to the downloads section.
There will soon be more and more GIMP tutorials that will be posted my me and other members. I personally will be re-writing some Photoshop tutorials for GIMP users to use (With permission from the Tutorial authors). If you need brushes for GIMP, private message me and I will tell you where to get some.
Also, if you are having any trouble understanding or working with GIMP, feel free to private message me or other GIMP users (Who will comment on this article so you know that those are the people to PM for help) and we will try and sort out your problem and make it easier to use.

For the first time ever, Adobe is delivering a widely available Photoshop CS3 beta to enable customers to more easily transition to the latest hardware platforms, particularly Apple's new Intel based systems. The beta is available as a Universal Binary for the Macintosh platform as well for Microsoft Windows XP and Windows Vista computers, with the final shipping release of Adobe Photoshop CS3 planned for spring 2007.
I don't have it on my computer but I have tried it and it is really great. You can do so much more than with cs2, but its a little confusing at first so you need to put in some time. So you might want to stick with CS2 right now until CS3 is out or until you have some time to play around.
As we consider ourselves a community site we decided why not let our community make our logo and forum buttons?! The Winner will get their name displayed on the pages, saying that they created the GFX, ie "Logo made by John Doe." as well as a special forum status ;)
So this contest has 2 parts: (1) The logo, and the (2) forum buttons.
Requirements: Logo- - 311 Pixels Wide and 96 Pixels Tall (311x96) - Keep it simple. - Must Say GraphixBrew.com
Buttons- Large Buttons (40x40) -New Post in Forum -No New Post in Forum -Locked Forum Small Buttons (15x15) -New Post -No New Post -New Post (Locked) -No New Post (Locked) -New Post (Sticky) -No New Post (Sticky)
.
