I'm new to Digi Scrapping-Help??

Okay, so I'm new to this, I have Adobe Photoshop CS2, I'm getting the basic hang of everything but how do you put realistic looking writing onto the scrap pages?
I have no Idea, I've been teaching myself the last week but I can't work out what "brushes" are and how to layout/put/create writing.
Can someone post a link as to how? Or explain?
Your help will be greatly appreciated, digi scrapbooking is not as big in Australia as in the US, people just looked at me silly when I said I was doing it digitally!!!:p
 
Try the pea fonts too for scrapbookers..they are handwritten fonts and look wonderful. Peek around they have great scrapbooking fonts with directions on how to d/l and install
Fonts

oh and welcome to your new addiction :)
 
Yeah-and Darcy Baldwin at The Digi Chick has some GREAT handwriting fonts as well as the fact that she will make you, your very own personal handwriting font. Definitely a cool thing to have when you're a digital girl!

Ditto! I've just done mine as Christmas gift and I absolutely love it.

Installing fonts is very easy: just copy the .ttf file, go to C-Windows-Fonts and paste. Then open your software (it even works in Word afterwards!) and use the font, that should be in the fonts list! Well, that's if you use Windows, don't know how to do it with a Mac! LOL
 
Its getting it from there to cs2, I'll work it out! I'm off on summer holidays to the beach today, will have some great pics for scrapbooking when I get home, looking forward to it.
thanks soo much everyone.
