Firstly you need to create a new image. Use the sizes 430x150

Now you need to fill the background black. This makes the brushng easier to see. You can always make it another colour after you finish!

Now we add some brush strokes to the picture. Use around 10-20 layers on this stage. Use alternating colours on each layer: black, white, black, white etc. Brushes can be found at http://brushes.deviantart.com

We now add some colour to this image. Every 3-5 layers add a \"colour balance\" layer found at layer > new adjustment layer > color balance. Mess around with the colours until you get a cool combination.

Here is what I ended up with: Hint: Don\'t go too overboard with the colours on the first and second colours balance layer.

Now to add some text. Simply choose a font you like and write what you want.

Play around with the font, give it a border and change the blending mode.

Now to add a proffessional looking border. Press ctrl+d to deselect everything and make a new layer above everything. Select the rectangle marquee too and drag a box over the whole image then stroke it by right clicking and selecting "stroke". Make a 3 pixel border like the on found in the tutorial at the following address. http://advertisezone.co.uk/ar/t1111.htm

To finish off mess around with the layer blending options a bit and add some filling effects. Then you are done. Here is my finished result!

That's it! Below are resources you may want...
