lol well i wasnt gonna released this tutorial or the other one bout the content box but i might aswell lol

1. First open a new document. I used 400px X 150px.

2. Now using the text tool create some text in the document. The font i used in the example is called Franklin Gothic Heavy. You can make the text whatever color you like.

<div class='bbimg'></div>

3. Now apply these following effects.

<div class='bbimg'></div>
<div class='bbimg'></div>
<div class='bbimg'></div>
<div class='bbimg'></div>
<div class='bbimg'></div>

4. To finish the text off we can add a shine. There are two different versions and i am going to show you. First we have the gradient shine. Hold Ctrl down and at the same time click on the text layer. The text should now be selected.

<div class='bbimg'></div>

5. Then with the text still selected create a new layer. Still with it selected click on the gradient tool. And pick the gradient where it goes from white to transparent. If you do not have this please make sure your primary color on the menu is white.

<div class='bbimg'></div>

6. You should still have the text selected and have a new layer. Click at the top of the text and drag it down to about three quarters of the way down. When you deselect by pressing ctrl+d you now have some glossy text.

<div class='bbimg'></div>

7. Ok now for the other version to create a shine. This is a straight edge and does not fade into the text like the other one. With the text still selected fill it with white.

<div class='bbimg'></div>

8. Now using the rectangle tool create a rectangle big enough to cover all the text but place it over the bottom half of the text. Now delete it and deselect and set the layer with the white on at a lower opacity. I set mine to 30%
