Pixelated Text


Step 1

Start a new document 400x150 pixels, pick to colors one for your foreground and one for your background, I'm using to types of blue, then goto "filter > render > clouds>", then select the text tool and the color white then type what ever it is you want to pixelate, here's how mine looks.
