Great links man, I go here for most of my design needs, font, pictures.
http://www.bluevertigo.com.ar/bluevertigo.htm

Check out the site from adobe labs.
This is for anyone who uses illustrator cs3, you can create your own swatch on the site, save it then when your in illustrator open the kuler panel search for the name of your swatch and then use it on your artwork. Sweet....do a search for wetworker.

Not to be rude or anything but I refuse to put up links to premade brushes, they just look trashy and you see the same ones in everybodies "Artwork" on deviantART so just make your own thats what all the successful designers do and I try to do as well.

Did you not read what I said in the first post let alone the post directly before your request? I DO NOT DO BRUSHES THEY ARE SH*T AND NO PERSON THAT USES THEM CAN BE CALLED A DESIGNER!! they would be called a "Creative Stampist", what you can do though is make your own brushes.

you can find them at brusheezy, or just google photoshop brushes or vectors and you will get a few good sites. I dont really recomend using them, especially the paint splashes and arrows type things, too many people just put a bunch of premade brushes on top of a gradient or something and call it artwork/wallpaper
