This explains to do a blurring kinda of text..

http://tinypic.com/ao89ja.gif

1.Start a new document..(any size is all right)

BTW If you want to use this in a sig be my guest..
If not then have a black BG

2.Type in your text in white using the text tool (press T)

3.Then go to blending options and use outer glow in these settings

Spread:14
Size:10

The rest leave them..(you can change the color tho)

4.Rasterize (right click on the text layer) your tetx and duplicate(Ctrl+J) it to 4 times at least..

5.On the 2nd copy of the text layer (which should be on top of the original text) go to filter-Blur-Motion Blur in these settings..

Angle-0 Distance-5

6.Repeat Step 5 only increase the Distance by 5 and go on each layer..

Now for animating...

Go to Imageready (Shift+Controll+M).

7.On slice 1 (i think thats what they are called..)

Danr this is gunna be tough not using images...

Heres your layers from bottom to top..

Layer 5
Layer 4
Layer 3
Layer 2
Layer 1 (A.K.A BackGround)

Slice 1:Layer 1 and Layer 2 checked

Slice 2:Layer 1 and Layer 3 checked

Slice 3:Layer 1 and Layer 4 checked

Slice 4:Layer 1 and Layer 5 checked

8.for the next slices just do them reverse..

Slice 5:Layer 1 and Layer 4 checked

Slice 6:Layer 1 and Layer 3 checked

Slice 7:Layer 1 and Layer 2 checked

and Ta-Da

Slices? Slicing up an image has nothing to do with Animations.

Maybe you mean frames? Slices are for gener web pages and Things.

this is what i used in the old signature a while back, although its a different variation; http://img363.imageshack.us/img363/5665/inevitabilitysignature9rk.gif
