For this tutorial you will need:
Psp

A gold gradient. Download it here.

And any font you like I used Black Chancery
Download Black Chancery here.


First of all install the gradient and the font you want to use.

Open up a new image with the width 400 pixels and height 200 pixels.
Now go to the text tool . This will bring up a tool box that looks similar to this one



Make sure you have a full line (like on the pic).
Set the line width to 4. If you pick a lower number here you will get a thinner gold line
and if you set a higher number you will get a wider gold line around your letters.

Click your new image.
An Image like the following will pop up.
Now make sure you have the font you want.
Also make sure it's the right size and that you have floating and antialias ticked.
Most important of all is that you have set the stroke colour to the same colour as the fill.
when all this is checked , click ok.



Now use the mover tool to move the text
to the middle of your new image.
Select the flood fill tool.
Go to Styles on the menu to your right.


Make sure it's set on gradient then find the gold flood fill you imported.
Now fill the text you got on your image with the gold gradient.
You should now have an image similar to this ....



Now deselect the image (ctrl+d). Select the text tool again.
Make sure you have the same font and the same size as last time,
also make sure you have antialias and floating ticked.

Most important of all is that you set the stroke to null.



Now use the mover tool again and drag this text over to the gold text.

You should have an image similar to this one now...



Now you can either leave it like this or alter it even more buy adding a drop shadow
(that's what I did on mine)
or a pic or well pretty much anything you'd like. :D
I hope you enjoyed this tutorial! Well done :0)
