You're not being ignored - only forgotten. Sorry about that.

Just took a look at that tutorial and while the method described there will work I prefer to merge monsters into the map wad I'm working on. You can also use DoomBuilder2's Map Options to add monster/weapon wads to the resouces for your map (no merging required) - either way they should appear in the Thing list's DECORATE section.

Wrong game configuration maybe? It has to be one of the GZDoom/Skulltag/ZDoom configurations in order to use DECORATE actors. I re-checked the tutorial and noticed the Afrit appeared in the "Health" section (that had me scratching my head) when I'd expect to find it in the "Decorate" section - strange.

Took the liberty of adding some Bestiary zombies to your map - may have a few too many Rocket Zombies but otherwise works OK.

Yes - DoomBuilder 2 in ZDoom (Doom in Doom Format) on Windows XP. If they're not visible in that configuration I don't know what to suggest.

You will not see any ZDoom thing, obviously. You have to use ZDoom, GZDoom or Skulltag. Or Vavoom, which is the only non-ZDoom-derived port that is compatible with DECORATE.
