Import png brushes into blender 2.8

Hey there, I was wondering if anyone knew a quick tutorial for importing png images that I make in photoshop as brushes in Blender 2.8. All I can find is links to videos or plugins for 2.79 or earlier. I wanted to make my own brushes in photoshop that I can import and use in texture paint in Blender 2.8. If I am missing something please let me know!

Thank you!

You can edit a 96th line of the Sculpt_Alphas_Manager.py file so it could search for *.psd files and use them as well. You can paste this:

'or fn.lower().endswith(".psd")'

right after:

'or fn.lower().endswith(".tif")'

and move ':' to the end of the line. It should look like this:

or fn.lower().endswith(".tif") or fn.lower().endswith(".psd"):

Save the file and reload add-on in the Preferences if Blender was opened.
