When I save a zbr file and then reopen zbrush with that file it wont leave me edit it any further. How do I edit it again? Sorry for the noob questions.
zbr files are document files. All you are saving is the 2.5D document. If you want to save a 3D object, that you can continue editing, you save it as a ZTool (Tool > Save As) or a Project (File > Save As).
