gradient and then drag the distance and
direction of the red arrow (image a)

Step 6
Now we'er going to rotate each letter, so we need to split the text into 2 First, rasterize the layer, by right clicking on it in the layers panel and then choosing "rasterize layer" Then use the polygonal lasso tool to make a selection around one of the letters (image a) You may want to zoom in to make sure not to create the selection over the other letter Once selected cut the layer into two, by right clicking on the layer in the layers panel, and then choosing "layer via cut" You should now have each letter as a seperate layer Select the "G" layer and then rotate counter clockwise by 30 degrees, using the transform tool (edit > transform > rotate)
Step 7.
Now rotate the "T" clockwise by 15
degrees Then go to [ Part 3 ] of this
