Rainbow Text Tutorial

1) Create a new document. My settings are below.
2) Go to Edit - Fill Layer and use the settings below.
3) Click on the 'Horizontal Type Tool' and type some text, make sure the color is white.
4) In your effects palette, click on layer style, go to the layer styles category and click on 'blue ghost'.
5) Go to Layer - New Fill Layer - Gradient. Set the angle to 0 and click in the area that I outlined in black to edit the gradient.
6) Click on the small arrow next to 'more' and select 'spectrums'. Now click on the gradient that I outlined in black.
7) Set the blend mode of the gradient fill layer to 'overlay'.
8) Select the text layer (the one in the middle). Go to Filter - Blur - Gaussian Blur and set the radius to 1 pixel.
9) Go to Layer - Merge Visible.
10) You finished making rainbow text!
