    Yes,

    Go to dafont.com

    download a font.

    Then go to your start menu > control panel >fonts

    Then add the font

    Then scroll down in photoshop on your fonts drop down and it will be there.

    You can add any fonts to PS this way

    Hope that helps!

    Your welcome , you can even add what the call "windings" which is artwork, so you can make your own headers....

    Also search for FREE photoshop layers and gradients and just download and load them in your "preset manager"

    Hope that helps :D

    I'll say this - as far as legibility (the ability to read text) is concerned, Handwritten fonts are *the absolute WORST*. Please, I strongly strongly urge you to use the best quality handwritten font you can afford. I have quite literally never seen a good handwritten font on DaFont.com ever.

    If you were to go for a handwritten font, I would steer you towards Bickham Script Pro, from Adobe here: http://new.myfonts.com/fonts/adobe/bickham-script-mm/

    If you don't have 35$ for it, then rather than use a free one I'd suggest having it in a font other than hand-written.
