Adobe Photoshop has a huge fan following, and hence has thousands of designers who produce custom brushes (our collection of best Photoshop brushes), gradients, actions, patterns and layer styles to be installed for extra functionality.
When you download such files, you may not know how to install them on your computer. But do not worry – we have proper steps to install such extras on both Windows and Mac OS X. Most files are packaged into zip files for smaller file sizes. Before installing the files, you must extract them from their ZIP files
For Mac OS
Step 1 :
Open the following loaction for Mac OS:
/Users/username/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PhotoshopX/Presets/
where username is your Mac OS X account user name.

where X is the version number for your version of Photoshop.
