    ..heh not bad for ure first try mate. :)

    But uhm i dunt think that border suits it. :rolleyes:
    I mean all that jagged stuff kinda spoils it IMO.
    Try this:
    step1: new layer
    step2: ctrl + A
    step3: Edit-->Stroke
    Step4: 5 px ( black ) then ok, then again 4 px ( white ) then again 3 px (black ) etc.. untill u just finnish off 1. ;)
    Step5: Set it to 'overlay'

    Then ure done, check it out, but if u wanna bigger bulkier tech border version just make sure that u start with a bigger px and go downwards then user rubber to like give it a good effect in places. :D
    Also then using blending options then fiddling around with a few things in there helps too. :)

    GL Mate and HF!

    Looks pretty good for ur first time. I think you should do more than just white text though. Also try some more stuff on the border than just that. But thats just my opinion.

    Ok, go to 1001freefonts.com, they have tons. Once you save the ones you like, extract the files to C://Windows/Fonts. Then it works for PS, Word, anything ;)
