    Well done re the fonts! *claps* :D

    With brushes, it depends what programme you're using, and what programme the brushes are made for. If you're using GIMP, I can give you some pointers and some links to tutorials that will show you how to download brushes and how to make images into brushes. For any other programme, I haven't a clue, I'm afraid. :confused:

    I probably can't help you with the brushes, because somehow I'm unable to find some for ps 6.0, and so I don't use them... :rolleyes:
    For textures it really depends on the texture and the base you want to use it on. I'm really not that good with using them myself, but if you should have any specific questions feel free to pm me and I'll try to be helpful... ;)

    I use a mac too. I've never had a problem with ttf files, but I use photoshop. Have you tried to use any other type of file?

    Right ok I have Adobe Photoshop 7 and I have a few zip folders with different brushes in! I know I have to extract the files but i'm not sure where to extract them to. I have managed to sort out what to do with text, is it similar? Can someone help

    @ nattybatty - If those zip folders don't include a Photoshop file but images of the brushes, open them in Photoshop and then go to 'Edit' --> 'Define Brush Preset' click on 'OK' and it will be added to your brushes. If it does include a Photoshop file then just go to Photoshop, 'File' --> 'Open' select that PS file and it will be added automatically to your brushes. Hope that helps.

    great! :D I thought I wasn't making any sense :lol:
    Now I got a problem :eek: I can't open any pictures in Photoshop, it keeps saying something like "Can't follow that order. Not enough RAM" :( That sucks! I can't make any icons now. What can I do? I guess I'll have to extend the RAM thingy of my computer...

    ^ After a little bit of digging I found pea missy cursive, half way down the page (just click on the font you want to download the zip file). I think the website is pretty cool, people send in their hand writing and they make the fonts from it and then distribute them freely on the site. There are some pretty nice ones. :)

    Was wondering if anyone knew where I could find the House font, I love that one and I've not seen it yet. And also the Charmed font, there was a couple of other fonts I was looking for but can't remember.
