when i get a font how do i actually put it into photoshop?

Are you using Windows or a Mac?
Photoshop must be closed first then

For Windows you must install the font on your computer. To do this copy the font file(s) and paste them into c:\windows\fonts assuming you have a standard windows install. Otherwise wherever your system folder is.

On a Mac you need to import the font into font explorer or font suitcase or whatever you use and activate it.

Then launch photoshop, it should pick it up. If that doesn't work, there is something funny going on so post here if you have problems and I'll try and get it working for you.

It's the same for Windows 2000, XP and Vista (Probably 95, 98 and ME as well.... It's been a while though).

Yeah should be roughly the same...... Go to the start menu, Click 'computer' then go into your 'C' drive into the Windows folder and into fonts folder..... Paste them there..... You need to ignore the 7000 warnings Vista will throw at you (you shouldn't need admin rights, although I wouldn't be suprised the way they have it locked down).......Damn I hate Vista....
