Description: In this tutorial, i'll show you how to make your text freezing cold. This tutorial will also show you how to use this ice text on any colored background.

	Start a new document 700x400px with blue HEX: #043A79 background.
	Switch over to the Channel's Pallete and create a new channel. (if the channel pallete is not visible, go to "Windows->Channels". While still in the channels pallete and with the new channel (Alpha 1) selected, select the Type Tool and type your text. Make it as big as possible.
Pixelate->Fragment Pixelate->Crystalize	Now duplicate this new text channel, to do this, drag the channel into the "create new channel" icon. This will not be Alpha 1 copy. Go to Filter->Pixelate->Fragment. Repeat this step for 3 times. Then go to Filter->pixelate->crystalize. Enter 6. (This depends on the size of your text. play around)
	Go to Select->Select All, then Edit->Copy Then go back to the layers pallete. Then Edit->Paste Then go to Image->Adjustments->Hue/Saturation. Match the following settings:
	Go to Image->Rotate Canvas->90CW
	Go to Filter->Stylize->Wind Method: Wind Direction: From the right
	Go to image->Rotate Canvas->90CCW
	Go back to the Channels Pallete. and click on the original text channel (Alpha 1) to select it. Then go to Filter->Blur->Guassian Blur. Enter: 8.0
	Go to Image->Adjustments->Levels Input Levels: [ 0 ] [ 0.15 ] [ 60 ] CTRL+Click on Alpha 1 (the original text channel) to make a selection around the text. Then go back to the Layer's Pallete
	Create a new layer. Press D and X on the keyboard to reset the colors back to default white and black. Go to Filter->Render->Clouds
	Go to Filter->Sketch->Chrome Set: Detail: 3 Smoothness: 3 You can play around with this to get different effects.
	Apply Inner Glow layer style to this chrome layer. (Blue used: #39C5FF )
	Change the blending mode of the chrome layer to overlay, and set the opacity to about 80% Now you are done, but what if we want to place our text on another color background? we cant, because it is already on a colored background. The following steps will show you how to overcome that.
	Go back to the Channels Pallete, CTRL click on Alpha 1 to select the original text channel, then go back to the layers pallete. Go to Select->Inverse, then hit delete to delete, then deselect.
	Go to Image->Rotate Canvas->90CW. Go to Filter->Stylize->Wind. Method: Wind Direction: From the right
	Go to image->rotate Canvas->90CCW.
	Now your ice text can be place on any colored background.

Enjoy...
