I already downloaded the fonts I'd like to use, I just don't know how to use them. I've got Photoshop Elements 7.0, in case it makes a difference (:

It sounds like you are kind of starting from scratch and you didn't say what operating system you are using, so here are very detailed instructions:

downloading and installing fonts (for Windows)

Find the file you downloaded on your computer. If it's a zipped file (.zip, .rar, .sit) you will need to unzip it before you can do anything else.

WINDOWS VISTA UNZIP: double-click on the zip to open it, then either click on "Extract all files" or drag and drop the files somewhere outside the zip window.

WINDOWS VISTA INSTALL: Select the font files (.ttf or .otf ) from within the Extracted Folder or where you dragged then right-click > Install

WINDOWS XP UNZIP: You should have extraction software already on your system - try right clicking on the file and selecting expand or extract if it is listed. Have it extract to where you are or where you can find it.

If you do not have those choices, you probably need to download software - there are many free applications. I like ExtractNow. Here is a link to a safe download from CNet. http://www.download.com/ExtractNow/3000-2250_4-10038365.html?tag=mncol&cdlPid=10871941 It is free. It is easy to install. Once it is installed, you just launch it, drag your zipped folders into it and click Extract.

WINDOWS XP INSTALL: Go to your fonts folder. Either through the start menu > control panels > fonts (make sure you are using Classic View for the control panels - it's much easier). OR go to My Computer > Drive C > Windows > Fonts. Drag the new fonts (just the ttf/otf files) from the extracted folder or wherever they are into the fonts folder. A box should pop up showing that the font is being installed.

FOR VISTA OR XP: If the download was just a single .ttf or.otf file, skip the extracting steps and go straight to installing.

The font should now show up in the font list of all your programs. If you have any programs running you will need to quit and restart them before they see the newly installed font. Worse case scenario - if the fonts aren't showing up, restart the computer.

When working with Photoshop CS3, layer reflection text by selecting an appropriate and stable font. Select a font with tips from a professional photographer in this free video on Photoshop.

I have Photoshop 7.

Could you link me to a site with some free fonts i could download?

ALSO

How do i install them?

Photoshop isn't a good program for using type. Do a search on Google for free fonts and you'll find plenty. If you're using Windows go to the Fonts folder and pull down "install new fonts". Locate them and make sure the "copy to fonts folder" is selected.
