hey man thanks a mill for the heads up on the site. I'm not sure if I am doing it right however because after downloading a mesh as a dxf file, I try to import it into Maya but ech time i try to import it it crashes Maya.
Any ideas??

same problem.
Solution( if you have Carrara,Maya, Max,etc)
Import to a separate program as dxf, export as obj.
Seems, althought listed, zbrush does not play well with dxf, or
sometimes tiff, or sometimes jpeg., or sometimes.....

Check out the zip collections and there are many in other formats.

Don't forget to turn smoothing off in whatever program you use to keep the edges sharp.
