Outlined Text

			1. Create your text using the Type Tool.
			2. Go Select > Load Selection... Just hit OK, and it will select the outline of the text.
			3. Then Select > Modify > Expand... Change this to the value you want the outline to go outside of the text.
			4. Create a new Layer under the text layer.
			5. Fill the selection on the new layer with the foreground color. (ALT-Backspace)
			6. Select > Modify > Contract... the selection about 1/2 of what you expanded it, and delete that part of the layer. (DEL) Check on 'Preserve Transparency' on the layers window, and give it a nice gradient.
