Photoshop 7.0 question about saving custom brushes?

I have photoshop 7.0 and am getting ready to change operating systems from vista to Windows 7. I have created many custom brushes and do not want to lose them. How can I save them so that I can re-load them into photoshop after I have Windows 7 on my computer?Photoshop 7.0 question about saving custom brushes?
?Go to Edit %26gt; Preset Manager.

?Make sure Preset type field is set to Brushes

?Select the brushes you want to save from the list by holding the Ctrl key as you're clicking on them.

?Click the Save Set Button

?Assign a name and save location to the abr filePhotoshop 7.0 question about saving custom brushes?
Basically all a brush shape is really is a small 48x48 square (correct me if i am wrong) and it is in the folder with the other brush shapes you have created or the shaped that are programmed, it is a .bmp file type and it usually reads in the sections where you choose the brush type.

The thing you need to do is find and copy the brush pattern from the folder they are in, I frankly couldn't find my brush shape folder as I do not have any custom ones in my Adobe.

Once copied you save them to disk, USB drive etc.

Then once done you can put them back later easy.
