Create & save a brush in CS5?

"Help" menu did not help with this. Instructor said create a design, drag around it to isolate it and then I can't remember the rest of what to do to save it to my brushes. Please help.

Create the brush design.
Make a selection around the brush design.
Edit->Define Brush Preset, give it a name.
You can edit the brush settings in the brush palette if you want, and save that to a new preset.
Now you can save all the brush presets, or go into the preset manager and save presets that you select.

Cannot load brushes to CS5

I caanot get brushes moved from CS3 to my new CS5. I copy / pated them to CS5 Presets/Brushes folder but they do not show up in CS5 - anywhere. Just to test the problem I downloaded a new Brush (abr), shown as being for CS5, but copy, drag, what ever, it will not show up in CS5 drop list either either. I am totally lost. Can anyone help me.

Yes, that was where I started. After trying several %$@ methods I did find that I could move them, one at a time, by first saving each set in CS3 via the Brush Preset drop down panel / Save Brushes, and then Save to the CS5 Presets/Brushes. I cannot do this through CS5 since CS5 doesn’t see them unless previously saved (I previously had created some larger brush sets) in CS3.
I did find if a downloaded brush was clearly designated CS5 that I could copy/paste it to CS5 Preset/Brushes. I’m not sure why that did not wok before ?
Perhaps the bulk of my brushes in CS3 were created in Photoshop versions that are not directly compatible with CS5 ?
I have a lot of brushes so this will be tedious but I at least found a way.
There has to be a better way but I can’t find it.

Newbie Here - How to Create a Slide Show in CS5?

I am using Windows 7 and I am familiar with PSElements 8 where creating a slide show is easy. I just want to create a slide show in CS5 (in Bridge?? View>Slideshow Options?) using vacation photos from several folders, and I want to order them manually.
First, I can't figure out how to display more than one folder in the Content panel in Bridge. Second, I can't figure out how to create and intersperse "blank" slides with text.   Third (and I haven't even gotten this far yet), how do I save the slide show and burn a VCD? This was all so easy and intuitive in PSE8, I can't believe it seems nearly impossible in CS5!
As an alternative, should I simply re-save the photos as JPEGs (they are PSDs now), export them to a Desktop folder, open them in PSE8 and create the slide show there instead?   Thanks for any help and suggestions!

1) Bridge has a new feature (can't think of the term at the moment) but it works like instancing or virtual copies. Select all of the photo's that you want and place them in the "collection" (Ah I knew I would think of it) Move to another folder and move them into the same collection and so on. These are virtual copies in that they don't really exist, but are a link to the original images. You then can use the collection for the slide show.
2) Just create a page same size as your photo's in photoshop with what ever color background and put your text on it.
3A)The slide show can be exported as a pdf or swf. Windows can then copy the file to a cd. If you choose swf, you may need to alter the html file (I assume it generates one, if not it isn't har to create one) The html file would help the web browser determine the correct size to display at. If you have flash, it can be used to create a html file as well.
3B)If you would like the slide show to be displayed on a tv screen, then your cd/dvd will need to use a format that your dvd player can play, mp2 is the standard, but some can display jpg's, some are blue ray, etc. For exporting into the correct video format, then one of the following can be used. After Effects, Premeire pro, Encore, Photoshop (If you have quicktime installed and you are using one of the formats that quicktime supports like mp4)
If you have quicktime installed, paying the 20 bucks may be worth it as it will allow you to take your jpg images and generate an animation file as avi or mov. But can save as mp4 as well.
4) In Bridge you can select all of the images and run image processor on them. This plug in is part of photoshop there fore it will be in the menu's under photoshop. It will let you specify the files size, format and any actions, etc. It will then place them all into a folder that you specify.

Creating a component in Flash CS5

Hi,
How can I create a component using Flash CS5? I have tried to follow various documents I have found on google and went about it in the following way:
1. I created an empty FLA.
2. I created a MovieClip containing some graphics, and named the MovieClip "MyTestComponent" in the Library.
3. I selected the MovieClip's properties in the Library and selected "Export for Actionscript", and made the MovieClip inherit from fl.core.UIComponent.
4. I saved the FLA in the directory "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Flash CS5\Common\Configuration\Components" and restarted Flash. At this point I would expect that the MyTestComponent component would show up in the Components panel, but it did not.
5. I tried to publish the FLA as an SWC file and place the SWC file in the same file as above. According to my understanding, both this and the step above should have worked, but it did not.
So, what am I missing?
Also, where can I find an up-to-date documentation on how to create components to be used in Flash CS5?

I managed to get it work at the end...
First, the components directory was at this location:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Adobe\Flash CS5\en_US\Configuration\Components
Then, to make a component out of a MovieClip, right click on the MovieClip in the library and select "Component Definition" and check the checkbox "Display in Components Panel". What I did then was to right click on the MovieClip and selected export swc file, and saved it in the directory above. This exported only one Component, which was fine for me. Probably it would be possible to do something similar to save a library of components as a .fla or .scw or so, but I don't know the details.

Custom Brushes CS4/CS5

I have been trying to create a brush that looks like a REAL marker. Looking at my image you can see the issue I am having. Top image is a real marker scan. Middle/left image is a calligraphic brush in illustrator. Bottom image is what I used to create my art brush. Middle/Right image is what I got after applying the art brush to middle/left path in Illustrator.
I am looking for something that behaves like a calligraphic brush but has the texture of an art brush. Is this possible in Illustrator?
Oh and it’s not the non-zero winding fill rule.

function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
I am looking for something that behaves like a calligraphic brush but has the texture of an art brush. Is this possible in Illustrator?
Neither ArtBrushes nor Pattern Brushes are going to give you the direction-dependent scaling (relative to the spine path) of a CalligraphicBrush.
Pattern brush would probably be your best bet. That way you can set the interior as well as both end caps.
In CS5, you can set an ArtBrush to scale only the region between two guides specified in the Art Brush Options dialog, thereby not scaling the "ends." But this still does not give you the "keep-aligned-to-page" behavior of a Calligraphic Brush.
JRMN,
You are also going to encounter the mitering problem inherent in ArtBrushes. ArtBrushes don't make sharp direction changes very elegantly, as you can see in your middle-right image. Even if you do concoct an ArtBrush that you find satisfactory, it's usually best to break the spine path at sharp corners.
Why kick against the thorns? This kind of thing is still best done in a raster program. Corel Painter (Originally Fractal Design Painter) would be a good choice. If you insist on its being done as vector paths, you might take a look at Microsoft Expression Design (originally Fractal Design Expression). I don't recall whether it can make its "Expression Strokes" stay oriented to the page as they are stretched along the spine path; it's been a while since I messed with it.

What is the easiest ways to create motion menus in Encore CS5 w/ After Effects CS5

Hello,
What is the easiest way to create motion Menus in Encore CS5? I'm creating a motion menu in after effects CS5 and will import as a menu in Encore, but I want to keep the animation, while the buttons will navigate you to the appropriate timelines. I want to keep the animation going throughout the duration of the menu?

The first link is Encore CS5 help. It is a good beginning. I'm not sure if the tutorial it links to is the same as my second link. The AE help link below is also useful.
CS5 allows creation of buttons in AE, but for plain navigation options, I think it is just as easy to add in Encore or Photoshop.

Editing image created with Illustrator brushes

Can parts of an Illustrator brush be removed or erased where they overlap on an angle. Obviously straight portions are not a problem and can be handled by moving the anchor point of the path. However, I have created a pattern brush with 6 parallel lines and I am designing a typeface for a Typography class. There are areas where the brush lines overlap.

Use the appearance palette, and 3 paths for example to make a B.
With appearance, there are so many possibilities.

Is your monitor well calibrated?
Did you print it locally on your own printer before sending it out?
After you've exhausted everything else, you might consider creating a small test file with the offending gradient, and physically carry it to one of the printing locations, and speak to a technician there. Honestly, it sounds like a profile mismatch, but if this has happened at multiple Kinkos locations, then I agree, it would seem the problem is most likely in the file.
Have you looked at individual channels? (R,G,B)
One other idea: you say it's olive to black ... you could try an olive gradient from 100% opacity to 0% opacity, placed over a solid black layer, (or alteratively, a similar black gradient over solid olive) and see if that improves the output. Beware, some printers are really bad at 0%-5% values. If the gradient is going from 100% of one color to 0%, this might be contributing to the problem. Try going from 100% to 5% if this is the case.
One last thing: can you post a portion of the offending area of the image here?
