Success! I noticed that just restarting the app doesn't do it. I also had to redo the "setup" file directory rigamorole for them to show up in the list. I get being able to set a directory for external files but it doesn't make sense that the program can't automatically see it's own file system when new stuff is put in it (eg. .../12/xara picture editor/PS Plug-ins). Anyhow, thanks for the help.
