Results so far:   Every time there is no color to my brush image, or there is a gray background and still no color to my brush image.

To create a new brush:
1) In File>New> I go to Advanced Options Then In Color space I choose Grayscale,
(or use the default RGB and then do Image > Mode > Grayscale)

2) The background must WHITE. (White will be transparent)

3) Draw in black or gray (black will take the foreground colour, gray will be semi-transparent foreground colour)

4) To create a new layer: Use WHITE for the background, draw with black/gray. Create as may layers as needed.

5) Save as .xcf ; Export as .gih

6) Put the gih in your profile brushes folder, refresh the brushes in Gimp

To use the brush:
1) Create a new image, this time it must be RGB

2) Select the brush

3) Set the foreground colour

4) (Most often: draw on a new transparent layer - make editing easier)

5) Draw

NOTE: If your brush is RGB it will not take foreground colour. No colours are changed, the brush is used as created.
