so i have to make one of those things that's like a corkboard with push pins and post it notes. tips on how to go about this? i usually hate things with this kind of design because i just think it looks cheesy most of the time. i need to find good quality brushes that are things like push pins, pieces of notebook paper, post it notes, ect. any suggestions on good sites to look for this? (other than somewhere like deviantart) i'm not in the know about brushes and junk.

i don't know if they'd have the exact brushes you're looking for but i know they have some nice ones. http://www.hybrid-genesis.com/

Hm, I found some http://psd.tutsplus.com/freebies/texture/corkboard-texture-pack/ that could possibly be useful. As for tacks, search for a high quality image (like on FlickR, or something) and just cut it out (or you could always use tape)? As for pictures, I suggest maybe using http://www.createblog.com/tutorials/tag/polaroid/.
