  Click on the + sign in the presets folder and you should see an import option, click there select the presets you downloaded and they will show up as user presets

  I did the + sign in lightroom and a box came up that says New Develop Preset and wants me to type in the name and it will go to user presets folder. I only have lightroom 3, is that the way I have to do it.

  Diane I will check when I get home from work. I will look for you. If its a preset you already downloaded you shoul be able to see an import option just click there and then find the file you download click on the file and them click ok to import. Are you a Mac or pc

I should be out of here in an hour. I have a few things to do so around noon eastern time I will write

I am using LR 4 right now it's a bit easier there, I found a link that shows step by step in LR 3

Let me know if it helps

  Thank you. I'll go there and see. I might upgrade to 4 soon. I may just want to wait until then if it is easier to load them. You have been so much help thanks.
