Dawn of Design :: Animated Scan Line Tutorial

	-Now the idea is that these "wings" will cover up the text. Make a new layer and call it Wings. -Now use the Rectangular Marquee tool and make a selection to be your "wing". -Make a selection As wide as your text thats important, make sure you do it right. When you have it the right size fill it with black ( Alt + Backspace)

	-Now Make a copy of your Wings layer. Layer>Duplicate Layer... -Using the Move tool Drag one of your copies to the top of the screen and one to the bottom, leaving a line about this thick between them. When you have postitioned them correctly merge them together. -If you are having trouble with this step you might try moving the layers with the arrow keys (hold shift to move them 5px at a time instead of 1). -Also if you hit F it will change your view of the image and give you more of a border to work with, so you can see where your layer is. -With the top Wings layer selected Layer>Merge Layers

	-Now take your Rectangular Marquee Tool and make a selection like this. -Next go to Filter>Blur>Gaussian Blur... with these settings: Radius: 6.7

	-Make a new layer and name it Scan Line -Make a selection like this with the Rectangular Marquee tool on your new layer and fill (alt + backspace) it with whatever color you want your scanline to be.

	-Now go to Filter>Blur>Gaussian Blur... use these settings: Radius:6.7 -Deselect (Ctrl + D) then hit ctrl + f to repeate the Gaussian blur Filter.

-Now fill in your text. This part you have to figure out on your own, I just used spaces to get the letters in the right spots so it fits with the hexagonal pattern. -If you have more than one word, make it easy on yourself and have more than one text layer -Also add a background layer on the bottom, filled with black.
