NOTE: Depending on your Photoshop version, you might not find Windows -> Animations. What you need to do instead, is go to Windows and click on Timeline. Then you get a box at the bottom, which has this:

Please Note: If you use a clipping mask with a line remember to create a new layer.

Step 5 - Create a new frame without touching anything with the text.

Very nice tutorial! I already know Photoshop animations pretty much in and out, so I'll just share something with everyone:

Depending on your Photoshop version, you might not find Windows -> Animations. What you need to do instead, is go to Windows and click on Timeline. Then you get a box at the bottom, which has this:

You click on the arrow and click on Create Frame Animation:

Then press on the button saying "Create Frame Animation", and you can start creating animations!
I've only seen this occur in the newer versions of Photoshop! (;

I really agree with Morchid. This is a really HQ tutorial and it really helps people learn when they see pictures so that they can visualize things to make it easier to understand.
