Question Custom Shape Tool

Today I decided to add an arrow to one of the pictures for a photobook. The little blue heart, right? I had it opened, clicked what was obviously the wrong thing, and now it is gone. No little blue heart showing in my tools. How do I get it back?

While I'm here, any hints about using the Custom Shape Tool?

Hi sjlarue,

Click and hold (or right-click) the little arrow next to the tool icon to bring out the other tools in the group. The little blue heart (Custom Shape tool) will be there.

Ok, my shape tool is just below the gradient tool. I have pse4 hope yours is there also. There is a little down arrow that you can click on that will bring up the group of tools. This includes other tools besides the custom shape. But you should see the choice of custom shape.
