Greetings everyone! I have a font that has some really cute dings that I
would like to add to my Custom Shapes in Adobe PS CS3, and I'm not sure how
best to go about this? Is there a way to do this easily so that I could
load them into the Shape Preset Manager?

Any and all you could give me would me most appriciated!
Thanks in advance for your time!

there are loads and loads of custom shapes in cs3, not just the ones
you immediately see, there are different theme ones, whats special
about the ones you want to convert?

Thanks for your reply Paul, I really appriciate it! I didn't realize that
making them would be so detailed... kinda changes my mind. haha! The
shapes I had were not all that special, but thought they'd be fun to play
with.

How do I access other shapes that I don't immediately see with CS3? I did
find some yesterday at devianART and loaded them... are there others?

Thanks for your time and and suggestions! Appriciate it!

go to adobe studio exchange
I think a very similar set is already made

why not just use them as fonts? they can still be manipulated the same way
resized transformed style applied etc
any text can be rasterized as well

Thanks KatWoman for the site, as well as for the suggestion. I guess part
of the reason why I wondered if I could make a shape out of it was due to
having so many fonts already installed, haha. I thought of all the ornament
fonts I could install and use, but then already gasped of what I do have
installed and trembled at the thought that the additons would put my system
over the edge. I'm sure I have plenty of room though... but on a PC, you
can never be too sure. bla.

Anyway, I really appriciate your and for the studio exchange... I'll
check them out, as well as just likely use it as a font :^)

to get to the other custom shapes, to the right of the ones you see is
a liitle arrow, that will take you to animlas, music etc
