no you can undo more... actually it is more of a "step back" than undo...

just change this in your preferences...

that tool can be any of the marquee's... rectangle, oval, ellipse or when it comes down to it, the pen tool...

Where do you put the new fonts you download? I downloaded new fonts but have no idea where to put them so they show in photoshop 7. :(

Rather than hogging your windows/fonts folder get something like bitstream font navigator (free with Corel) and let that manage your fonts.

I have over 4000 fonts and not a single one is installed. They all reside in Extensis Suitcase and I activate and deactivate as needed.
