1.) Create a New File. Go To File > New. Make it 400 X 150 pixels on a white background at 225 dpi.

2.) Press letter "D" on keyboard to set foreground color to black. Select the Text tool and type a few letters (I used Arial Black 48pt smooth.)

3.) Launch the Layer Style palette and go to Bevel and Emboss. 1st Color #00FFCC, 2nd Color #669966.
Follow all panels exactly now.

Go ahead and play with the scale slider to see just what this beast does!
