Hey all,

I've got a few questions that to be quite honest embarass the crap out of me to ask. But oh well, I really need to know.

A little over a month ago I switched from PSP7 to CS2 9.0. Now, while I've got most everything figured out, there's a few really basic things that are beginning to frustrate the hell out of me because I just can't get them:

1] Rotating text - I know. One of the most basic actions of the program and I can't do it. Its gotten so bad that a lot of the time I save a copy of whatever I'm working on and transfer back over to PSP to put the text on.

2] Opening/using .abr files - a concept totally alien to me, so I miss out on A LOT of the good textures, brushes, gradients, everything by only being able to use .zip files and image packs.

3] Brush work - please don't make me say anymore than I have no idea how to install the brushes, maintain their original size and be able to use as a stamp. [Make sense?]

Kay, that was thoroughly embarassing. I'm gonna go over and sit in the corner now..
