You can use this for a certain period of time to download your products. The designs and documentation and serials are all stored in a wirbelt zip file and that can be expanded by most modern OS but if you can't unzip the file then I would suggest checking out tools such as Stuffit Expander or Unzip (free).
PNG files : In many cases, you can use the wirbelt PNG files (or JPG files as sometimes they are used instead of PNG files) in a variety of ways. The PNG files can be used as a source for brushes in many different applications as well as a great source for amazing patterns and seamless tiles and textures etc. The wirbelt files are generally easy to add into the application such as via the edit menu and the define command to add the artwork as a brush stroke or pattern. All the applications are very different in their approach and if you want to find out how to do this for your application then I would suggest checking the documentation or checking out our video tutorials on youtube.com (graphicxtras channel) and you can learn of many more things to do with the artworks. You can also convert the PNG format files into other formats such as PSD and then use the artworks as a great source for displacement maps. You can also trace the wirbelt artworks and convert them into vector designs perhaps for use as a vector shape or CSH format design.
ABR : Brush format files in Photoshop and Photoshop Elements. Some of the ABR designs can be used in tools such as Affinity Photo, GIMP, PSP as well though if that is not the case then the PNG files are supplied and can be used as an alternative and added to those application's brushes. The wirbelt ABR files are added via the brushes presets and can then be applied as a brush, art history, clone brush, smear, blur, etc.
PAT : Pattern format files for Photoshop and elements and are loaded via the patterns features in those applications such as in layer styles and fill layers etc. A simple set of designs can be combined and modified into millions of amazing wirbelt pattern tiles for all your work such as frames, tiles, backgrounds, overlays, textures, surfaces and more.
CSH files : This is the format for Photoshop and Photoshop Elements for the wirbelt custom shapes and they are super easy to load via the custom shapes panel and load command. Once loaded into the panel, you can select any of the vector designs and use as a great source for new brushes as well as patterns and tiles etc. The custom shapes can be any size. You can also use the wirbelt as cookie cutters in Elements.
PDF files : These are basically the equivalent of the JPG and PNG but they are vectors and can be used to any size which can be set on import into the application (though that does depend on the application so if used in Illustrator, you can re-size and distort and use all the usual vector effects on the designs). PDF is Adobe Acrobat format and is supported by a large number of applications such as Affinity Photo, Photoshop, GIMP etc. You can use the wirbelt designs as is but you can also use them as a source for brushes and patterns and textures and many other resources.
EPS files : These are supplied in many different sets and can be used as vector wirbelt designs in many applications such as Illustrator and Affinity Designer. You can re-size them in all kinds of ways and add effects and more to the designs. You can also use them as a wonderful source for brush strokes and tiles etc. You can import wirbelt EPS files into many different applications such as PaintShop Pro and Photo-Paint etc.
TTF or OTF files : These are fonts, just the same as Times New Roman and Arial but instead of A B C D etc you get wirbelt designs included in each of the glyphs. Easy to add via the font panel in the control panel on the PC or via the fontbook on the mac. Access the set via the typeface dropdown. You can also access all the artworks via the glyphs panel in a number of applications making it easy to select all the designs in seconds.
AI files: These are either sets of wirbelt designs to be used as brushes in Illustrator or swatches or symbols or styles (the clue is in the product name). In many cases, you can simply open them as swatches and then drag the resources to the artboard and then drag them into the brushes or symbols and use them as a great source for those presets. You can also export the designs for use throughout the Creative Cloud either by using the export functionality or by dragging the wirbelt to the library panel and then using the designs in After Effects and Premiere and Photoshop etc.
