Yeah, click reset brushes and it'll ask if you want to switch to that set or append ie. tack the default ones on to the current set. Importantly, don't hit reset until you've saved the set you're making.

lol i was just wondering, do you know how to make brushes that when you use them, it comes out different shades of colour, you know, like the leaf brushes on CS2...?

If I understand exactly what you want then the answer is yes. In your brush settings (the button at the far right of your brush toolbar) turn on color dynamics and put the Hue Jitter up to 100%
