And if you don't mind me asking...how do you get the brushed aluminum effect you got on the text? I've tried that just screwing around a lot but have never got it right.
Hey man,
The font is the Batman Forever font... I modified it a little though. As you can see, it doesn't have the pointy letters anymore, I squared them off. http://www.dafont.com/batman-forever.font
You can get the brushed aluminium effect by combining a number of effects. First of all I would like to say that when it comes to logo's, I work in hi-res... like 5000px x 5000px with 72 dpi, as it allows for better detail and easier editing of problems. Even if the logo will only be 50px x 50px... If your PC/MAC can handle it, I say always work in hi-res.
As for the effect itself... if you create a new pattern layer (any pattern will do pretty much) and resize it so it doesn't tile on the page, then add a large amount of motion blur and group it with the text layer, you are on the right path. After that go to image/adjustments/gradient map and apply the black and white gradient... then you can play around with the contrast (image/adjustments/brightness&contrast or curves) of the blurred layer and get it too look as you please.
One thing I did was add noise to the blurred layer... only around 25 percent though. It looks strange at full size, but when you resize the text down to whatever size you want, it actually improves the brushed look of it in my opinion.
Let me know if you need any extra help or if you don't understand what I wrote.
