use a layer mask and the gradient fill tool on the text layer.

cool….thanx!
um….i’m trying it right now…but i can’t seem to get it. ya think it’d be too much trouble if u can send me a PSD file with that effect done on it?

just any sentence…"blow out the window" would be cool.

if u can’t…it’ll all good, but i really wanted to know how to do this.

thanx again man,
_chris

p.s.
is this the only way to do it?

Toe,

Type your text.

Go to Layer -> Layer Style -> Gradient Overlay.
