Text in your bg's and bn's

[Rebirth0]

I see all this cool text in the banners and backgrounds of great sims. Whe I try making cool text, I fail. How do you people make the text to like Halloween, K8107, and stuff with cool looking text?

Can someone show me how to do this? I'm using Photoshop CS, is that what you guys use?

If anyone can AIM me and show me how that would be great.

Um

Use the text tool?

Make sure you select a good font, and then go to blending options and do stuff or add stuff to the text.

CS? And you still can't make good text? Jesus, I'm stuck with Elements 2.0 that doesn't even have text modifying options like CS, and I still get along. Come on.

Make a big text, then Highlight the text (ctrl + click the layer).. then start adding colors and doing blending and filters.
