I warped the text to make it look 3d, then copied my text and moved them up 1 pixel about 35 times then combined them and added gradient and drop shadow and on the top layer i added more blending options like gradients, pattern, bevel and emboss etc etc

i made one text layer a light blue, then i duplicated it and made it darker and put it under the text to make a shadow effect. I added a gradient, inner and outer glow to the top layer for the effect, and for the bubble, i made one circle with a 0% fill and added a gradient, and then i put another cirlcle inside of it and made the gradient going the opposite way, to add a shiny effect. i also put a layer mask on the text to make the text look glossy

ii added a pattern overlay to the background and i also added a gradient, foreground to black. i typed in the text and added a silver stroke, then i btu in white rectangles over the text, and lowered the opacity to make it look flashy. Then i got a brush and put in shadows behind the text and lowered the opacity.

in this text, i made the text by duplicating the text, and adding effects to it. I learned to use the contour and texture of the bevel and emboss tab of the blending options, we added alot of gradients, and glows and patterns and textures to the text to make it look like that. After that we duplicated the layer and used the smudge tool to make the molten places look more molten, then we used different colors as shadows and highlight. then we added smoke and sparks by putting them into different layer modes. This one was my favorite, and most time consuming, i learned alot of cool new things with this project.

in this text i learned how to use the bevel and emboss to add more curves to the letters to make it more plastic looking, i used the contour and bevel and emboss to make the plastic look good.

this text was typed, then i added a displacement file on top of the letters to make the galaxy wrap around the letters. then i duplicated the text, put it upside down, and added a mask, then foreground +gradient to it. then i duplicated the first layer and put the fill to 0 and then made a color overlay and shortened it to make it look like shadows

for this text i used a pattern for the background and then a gradient. i made the text and added a dropshadow and a gradient

for this one, we added a texture to the background of the picture and added text and duplicated it about 4 time, each layer had different effects like, inner and outer glow, gradient, texture, bevel and emboss, contour, patterns, i really enjoyed making this one.
