Ultimate Photoshop Design Resources
Here’s a list of my personal favorite photoshop design resources.
Fonts
The standard fonts on a PC are really boring and just created to read. You want fonts that just look nice on your artwork. Download fonts from the following sites to give your text a nice look.
To install, place the downloaded TTF-file (or other Font-file extensions) in the Fonts folder on your PC. This can be found in C:\WINDOWS\Fonts.
