Thanks Elwin and Owen. I'm almost there. I downloaded, and *finally* found the file. It had gone into /tmp.
And then I found the hidden files containing the brushes. Using Konqueror, I moved the zip file over to the /home/helen/.gimp-2.2/brushes directory. Then I clicked on the zip:/home/helen/.gimp-2.2/brushes/iceytina_paint_oilpastelsGIMP.zip/ file, and then I got a message saying The file zip:/home/helen/.gimp-2.2/brushes/iceytina_paint_oilpastelsGIMP.zip/iceytina-oilpastel_coarse01.gbr is a binary, saving it will result in a corrupt file. Would you give me some advice as to what I should do next?
