    Hello all,

    I have a problem here with my photoshop. And I can’t for the life of me figure it out. My brushes are all pixelated. No matter what brush I use, they all have a pixelated edge

    here’s an example. thanks.

    after a lil searching around i found a website that just told me to delete the photoshop preferences so it just resets photoshop. And no you won’t lose your plugins or brushes etc.

    1) Close Photoshop, and 2) Hold Command + Option + Shift (Control + Alt + Shift, PC) while you restart Photoshop.

    boom, pixelated brushes are gone.

    if anyone knows WHY the pixelated brushes even happen, I’d love to hear it!

    You have of course checked that you’re not using the pencil tool by accident.

    I had the same problem. I was definitely using the brush tool. I finally found this post and although I had to reload my brushes after following the solution above, it did work! So thank you thank you! I would also like to know what the problem was so if it happens again I can directly fix or avoid in the first place.
