These are Photoshop .ABR brushes. I just simply dragged and dropped them into the GIMP2.0/Brush folder.
As an alternative to the slider in the toolbox the [ and ] keys decrease and increase the tool (brush) size by 1.
Using the Shift key in combination with the above keys is supposed to change the size by 10 - unfortunately this doesn't work (at least for a UK keyboard) since Shift + [ isn't recognised (I believe that this was reported as a bug some time ago). The answer is to use "Edit/Keyboard Shortcuts" and type "size" (all without quotes) in the search box. Then assign the { key to the "Tool's Size: Decrease by 10" action and the } key to the "Tool's Size: Increase by 10" action. Then, in effect, the shift key magnifies the changes.
Sometimes using the keyboard short-cuts can be easier than going to the toolbox and adjusting the slider.
