Hmmm...
Are you sure they're .gbr brushes?
If,so..maybe the file was damaged.Try re-downloading them,and see if that works.That happened to me on one brush set I downloaded the other day.

I'm very bad at explaining..and I don't know all the uses for masks,but the way I use them is for blending.
When I blend a banner,I put my first picture into a new white image..then add the second picture as a new layer.
Then I click on the second image,and click>Mask>Add Layer Mask>Black>OK
Then I use a soft paintbrush in white to softly blend in the parts I want.(Example..the second banner in my signiture)
So,masks to me are a way of blending.....

Welcome!:)
Oh,another thing..there are masks textures you can find online and download.They block out portions of an icon or banner...I'm just learning how to use them.

You know the lines on banners fad going around? What's the best way to do that on GIMP? Anyone know?

I haven't found any gimp user that can make those,so I really have no idea.The only suggestion I can offer is to make a border in gimp (Decor>Add Border) on a new transparent layer,and then set it to overlay.It might get the same effect.Or you can ahnddraw a border using a thing square tool,or google frame border textures/brushes and set them to overlay.
Hope that helps a little?:)
Oh,and if you find a good way,will you tell me please?:D

I'll give it a try. I kept looking for a tool to draw just a straight line, but couldn't seem to find anything. If I figure something out I'll let you know. And thanks!

Do you mean a border line, or lines such as the ones I have on my bottom banner?
For a border, I usually fill an entire new layer with a color (generally a black/grey/white one), then use the rectangle tool to delete as much of the inside as I want.
For the ones I've got on my banner, there is a pattern already in GIMP for lines going straight across. You just fill in a new layer with the pattern and voila! For diagonal, the easiest way I've found is to do a new layer. When the new layer box comes up, make it (for a standard banner) 1400x600. Then fill it with the straight lines, and rotate the layer 45 degrees.
Hope that helped!

That's perfect! I considered that before with just erasing the inside, but knew that wasn't worth it. Thanks so much Nurr!
And the Design->Border works as well. There's also Filter->Distort->Blinds which gives a number of lines
