Fire Text

Here I will learn you how to do a great fire text.

My english translation is not my best but I hope you understand some if the important tuff.

Step 1:
Create a new document... I took 300px*300px

Step 2:
Make the background black... THIS IS IMPORTANT IF YOU WANT THE BEST FIRE EFFECT!

Step 3:
Create the white text you want to have the fire effect on.
I took a text size 48pt

Step 4:
Mark the text layer, then go to layer/duplicate layer
Name it "fire text effect"

Step 5:
Make layer "fire text" invisible
THIS IS IMPORTANT NOW!

Step 6:
Go to image/rotate workspace/ 90° anti-clockwise (I don't know how to translate this)

Step 7:
Make sure you have the layer "fire text effect" mark
Then go to filter/stylize/wind
Klick at the Ok

Make sure you have the direction on the wind correct
From the right if you have done the same as me.

Klick on OK

Step 8:
Do the same as step 7 again...

Step 9:
Now go to filter/blure/Gussisk blure
In radius (radie) take 2,0 px
Klick on OK

Step 10:
Go to image/rotate workspace/ 90° clockwise (I don't know how to translate this)
So you have it normal now.

Step 11:
Choose a nice red/orange color fot he fire... Not too yellow! More red orange.
Make sure you have the "fire text effect" layer mark.
And then press: Alt-Shift-Backslach
Now the is fire text effect orange/red
(You can choose blue or green but orange/rad is the best)

Step 12:
Go to filter/Make buoyant
