Rotate The Orientation Of A Brush

To rotate the orientation of the currently selected brush go to the Brush Panel (in Window > Brushes or by pressing F5). Then go to the Brush Tip Shape tab, and click-and-drag the Brush Direction Picker (or enter a value in the Angle input box) until the brush is oriented exactly the way you want!
