Hi friends

A while ago I made the upgrade from Photoshop 5.5 to Photoshop 7 (quite a change)

Now on Photoshop 5.5 there used to be an option for typing text in marching ants form and then by making a new layer and putting a gradient over it I was getting some really nice effects - which could easily be altered again and again until the desired effect was achieved..

How do I do the same thing in Photoshop 7 - maybe it's obvious but if someone could spell it out for me I'd appreciate it.

On P7 there seems to be a gradient overlay option, but I cant't seem to alter the colours to my own preferences.

Thanks in advance and Happy New Year to you all !

In the layers box there is a F with a blue circle around it, click it, then check the ones you want, background, gradient, pattern etc.
