To unzip files you need to download a version of winzip, here's a tutorial. (http://www.autumnweb.com/Roxys/2Tutorials/4WinzipTutorial.html) .

After you have unzipped the file, you have to go to......start, settings, configuration screen, fonts, and install the new font there.

That is all explained in the help section of windows I believe.

Hope this helps, I've installed fonts in the past so it can't be too bloody difficult.

Okies...look, go get pkunzip or some other craptasic unzipping shareware/freeware/whateverware utility...then unzip the .zip files into a new folder so you can throw all the crap out later...

Now that you have unzipped yer font files, copy only the .ttf files into the windows\fonts folder...make sense??

And please, for the love of God, stay away from stupid looking fonts...at this very moment I am putting together a few of my own hand crafted fonts because all of the free ones(besides a few some designers made) suck shit...

Hey 3MTA3, it's been three days now, do you think she figured it out, or did we break her brain?
