Hi,

Anyone know how to create Bright-Looking Text graphics using Photoshop?

Perhaps, the header in the following site would be a good example:

I'm not sure what you're asking. The example is very basic, a gradient, an image and some text. You can make this in a couple of minutes in Photoshop or almost any image editor.

Basically you pick the starting color, the ending color, the type of gradient (linear or radial) and draw a 'line' on your image from the starting point of the gradient to the end point.

You can make the gradient as complex as you want.
