Brushes in Photoshop CS6 Suddenly Turning Really Small

*FrozenTimez Jan 19, 2013

I was drawing in photoshop cs6 and everything was going smoothly until suddenly out of no where, my brush size turns really small. My brush settings tell me that I'm still using a 25px radius hard brush, but when I actually start to draw with it it turns out MUCH smaller. No matter how big I make my brush, it still shows up proportionally smaller, significantly. As far as I know, this is only happening to the brush tool. The eraser, stamp, and pencil tool all work fine still.

I've checked all my brush settings, made sure caps lock isn't on, reset my brushes, and restarted photoshop, but to no avail.

I don't know what to do anymore D;! Am I missing something? or is something wrong with my photoshop? I googled it and found that it looks like some other people were having the same problem, but so far on adobes support forum there doesn't seem to be a solution stated.

If anyone can help me figure this out, I'd really appreciate it!

Thank you so much!

Do you use a tablet? If so you should check your sensitivity settings, and try to press harder just to check.

*FrozenTimez Jan 20, 2013

_{I do. But the settings look fine D; The brush tool isn't just tiny, but it isn't even pressure sensitive anymore. The eraser still is, so I know pen pressure must be working, just not for the brush tool : /}

maybe it's just the tablet? Did you try working with your mouse to see if it's the tablet?

*FrozenTimez Jan 20, 2013

_{ah, it's working again!!
I didn't do anything but it's working again o-o;;

idk what happened but thank you for your help!}

Draw with a bigger brush size, or check your tablet's pressure sensitivity settings

maybe your canvas is really big and that's why it looks small>

_{my canvas is actually really small through, it's just 800px by 1000px : /}
