I'm a little sick right now, so pardon me if I don't seem like my usual self... *achoo* Okay, here we go...

This style can be used on any color background, but to make it easier to see I'm using a black background (400x150) and the 120px font Bastarda

1. Type your text in any color. The bigger the font, the better the effect looks.


2. Start with a Gradient Overlay - Blend Mode: Normal, Opacity: 100%, Style: Linear (Align With Layer), Angle: 90, Scale 100% | Color Stops - FF6E02 at 0%, FFFF00 at 50%, and FF6E02 at 100%


3. Next, we'll apply an Inner Shadow - Blend Mode: Multiply, Color: FF0000, Opacity: 73%, Angle: 90 (Use Global Light), Distance: 7px, Choke: 5%, Size: 13px, Countour: Cone, Noise: 0%


4. Then the Inner Glow - Blend Mode: Normal, Color: FFF000, Opacity: 100%, Noise: 0%, Solid Color, Technique: Softer, Source: Edge, Choke: 32%, Size: 9px, Countour: Linear, Anti-Aliased: Unchecked, Range: 17%, Jitter: 0%


5a. Now Bevel and Emboss - Style: Inner Bevel, Technique: Smooth, Depth: 870%, Direction: Up, Size: 3px, Soften: 6px, Angle: 90 (Use Global Light) Altitude: 30, Gloss Contour: Linear, Anti-Aliased: Unchecked, Highlight Mode: Screen FFFFFF 100% Opacity, Shadow Mode: Multiply FFCC00 0% Opacity


5b. Contour Settings - Anti-Aliased: Unchecked, Range: 0%


6. Add a Stroke - Size: 1px, Position: Outside, Blend Mode: Normal, Opacity: 100%, Fill Type: Color, Color: FF9C00


7. Add an Outer Glow - Blend Mode: Normal, Color: E10000, Opacity: 100%, Noise: 0%, Solid Color, Technique: Softer, Spread: 12%, Size: 3px, Countour: Linear, Anti-Aliased: Unchecked, Range: 6%, Jitter: 0%


8. Finally, Drop a Shadow - Blend Mode: Normal, Color: FF5B02, Opacity: 100%, Angle: 90 (Use Global Light), Distance: 6px, Spread: 0%, Size: 3px, Countour: Linear, Anti-Aliased: Unchecked, Noise: 0%, Layer Knocks Out Drop Shadow: Checked
