I know a few of you are trying to learn photoshop like myself(I suck) so I thought maybe there should be a thread of a photoshoped pic and an explanation on how you did it, so others can practice. This might be a dumb idea but maybe some people will contribute.
For this one, I used a tutorial shich was very helpful.
1. Create a new RGB image to work with. The example is 325x125, Resolution 72, and has a black background.
2. Choose a Bright Green color as your foreground and Black for your background color.
3. Choose Edit -> Fill -> Background Color to fill the background layer with black.
4. Select the Type Tool and choose the the Type Mask Tool from the Options bar at the top of your screen (in earlier versions, drag to the right on the Type Tool icon). Next click inside the document and type any text you want (choose any font or size you like). Click the Check mark in the Options bar to finalize the text layer (OK in older versions).
5. Choose Edit-> Fill-> Forground Color (the green).
Go to Select-> Feather 2 pixels
7. Choose Filter-> Blur-> Radial Blur (100, Zoom, Best)
8. Without deselecting, repeat step # 7. (Press CTRL+F)
Now, Select-> Inverse and repeat step # 7 again... Filter-> Blur-> Radial Blur (100, Zoom, Best)
I am giving credit for this great tutorial to http://www.absolutecross.com/tutorials/photoshop/text/alien-text/

Ok i will post one that I did once I can get this stupid attachment thing working.
Edit: ok all is good now, here it is. I am still trying =)
