    for brushes, extract it from the .zip or .rar file,
    in ps, click brushes, in that main menu bar along the top, click on the little triangle facing right. select "load brushes" then browse to your brush file and click open.

    extract your font files to c:\windows\fonts
    (i also have trouble with this, alot of the time i'l extract the font, but photoshop doesnt have it listed in the fonts choice, and yes..ive tried closing and reopening >_>)

    You'll have to look in c:\windows\fonts after you extract your files there, make sure the new fonts show up. If they don't show up, exit out of the font folder and re-enter it again. The new fonts should show up then. THEN, launch photoshop and the new fonts will be there.

    Q: is there a plug-in for photoshop that lets you sort your fonts?

    instead of one giant pull down menu, you get to sort them into different groups...
