What am I missing? Can't figure out fonts!

I bought some of Darcy's fonts yesterday but I can't seem to figure out how to get them to work. I downloaded the files and I get a folder with two TIFF images (of the word "font" written in the font), a preview and another thing called "folder" which has the same picture as the preview. There is not a page with the individual fonts on it. Am I missing something? I'm using PSE3. Or, am I supposed to download something into my specific fonts folder?
 
Hey Kelli -
Copy the actual .ttf file into your c:/windows/fonts folder. Then you'll be able to use it in PS as you would any other font. The preview, folder, ty, tou, etc are all just like any product you download from a store. Find the djb ### file (that's the ttf file) and copy it.
 
Hey Kelli


Are those "ttf" files you are clicking? And maybe using ACDSEE? I know thats how ACDSEE previews the font files for you. But those files need to go wherever you keep your fonts. Like, I have a folder for fonts I download and use a font manager to load mine in and out of ps. But if you are not using a font manager, you need to (i think) install them into your windows fonts. Gonna grab Darcy to be sure...
 
Okie Dokie - Got it. Thanks so much Darcy and Tracey! I continuously amaze myself with the amount of dorkiness that I exude on a daily basis. I used to think I was fairly computer savvy until I started digi scrapping!
