Gimp Help Needed!!

The problem I am having is getting fonts to appear in Gimp. It worked yesterday where I got 2-3 fonts to appear. I tried putting up more today and it didn't show up. I spent an hour or 2 trying different ways. I can see the fonts in adobe Photoshop but not gimp. If you can help please that would be greatly appreciated. I have windows xp sp1 with gimp 2.4.7
What I tried:
Reinstalling Gimp
Rebooting the computer
Recopying/pasting
Steps I took to put the fonts on:
1) Downloaded it and put it into the Gimp's Font folder
2) Opened Gimp (still didn't appear)
1) Downloaded the fonts and put it in the Systems Font folder
2) Opened Gimp(Still didn't appear)
Also I added brushes and they worked like a charm. Its only the fonts that are giving me the problem.
Thanks

Go to your Start Menu.
Go to control panel.
Find the Fonts folder.
Open the folder where the font you want is in.
Either move it into your Fonts folder or copy and paste it into your Fonts folder.
Restart Gimp.
If you have any problems tell me.

Try clearing the old fonts and re-add them.
From the gimp's font folder or the systems?
