I am working on some images for my website and I ran across this website: http://www.webdesignfromscratch.com/ ... The title bar (logo thingy at the top) is really nice and I wondered if their was a tutuorial to produce something like this. To make a glassy effect like that - similar to a Windows Vista window almost.

Now I use the Gimp but I find that I can follow most Photoshop tutorials so any explantion on how to do this would be great!

Dang, that thing was going at warp speed...........lol I couldn't follow the first minute or so....... but I think I get it now - you create a two color split and add a gradient (% based on how "glassy") you want it.......??

I know I get this message:

The Camtasia Studio video content presented here requires JavaScript to be enabled and the latest version of the Macromedia Flash Player. If you are you using a browser with JavaScript disabled please enable it now. Otherwise, please update your version of the free Flash Player by downloading here.

Then when I try to update the Flash Player nothing happens - I don't really know what is wrong with it.

On another note............ I figured out how to "do" gradients in Gimp (YAY!!!), but now having a bit of difficulty adding the text to it............ or what I should say is I can add the text, but once I choose the position, I can't figure out how to move it........

In Photoshop make a new layer. Then take the rectangle selection tool thing. Then select the top half. Then go to the gradient. Choose white for foreground. Make the gradient the White->Transparent. Then in the selcted area use the gradient.
