Tutorial: Showtime Sign Style

I am still asking for prior knowledge in Photoshop CS3 Extended in using this tutorial, and please please please, don't ask for help unless you think a step is missing, perfect your Photoshop skills and then try it again.

LET'S HAVE ANOTHER GO AT THIS, SHALL WE?! (;

Before we begin, you need have your layers palette open, so press F7, and you also need to define the following things as patterns:
1, 2, and 3. (it's a transparent circle, that's small, so press ctrl+a, and it'll highlight to show you where it is)
And define this as a brush:
1.

We're going to start using this picture, the PSD is here, and these colors.


Open your PSD, and grab the magic wand too; put your settings to anti-alias and sample all layers like this, then go to select>inverse, press ctrl+c, then on your layers palette, right click>flatten image, then press ctrl+v, your layers should now look like this.
Then go to layer>layer style>stroke, and set your settings like this, then press OK. Now, on your layers palette, click once on the bottom/background layer, and in the lower right corner, click on the Create a new layer icon, then right click on the top layer, and go to merge down, so your layers now look like this. Go back up to the layer>layer style>stroke, and set your settings like this. Again, click once on the background layer, and make a new raster layer, then click on the top layer and merge down, then go to layer>layer style>stroke, and set your stroke settings like this, and your drop shadow settings to this.
Click once on the background layer, and take your polygonal lasso tool, and make a border around the site model about 5-10 pixels, so that you have a border that looks like this, and go to the lower right corner again and press create new raster layer, and then take your gradient fill tool, and stretch it across the inner border.
Now, make another new layer, and take really any brush of your choice, I'll be using these brushes, and use them across the gradient, so you end up with this.
Now, press ctrl+c, and ctrl+v, then go to layer>layer style>stroke, and set your settings like this, then click the layer below the second layer from the top, and go to the right lower corner and make another new raster layer, then click on the layer second from the top again, and right click>merge down, so that your layers look like this, then go to layer>layer style>stroke, and set your settings like this, then press OK. Now click on the layer right above the background layer, go to make a new raster layer in the right corner, and then select the layer one below the top layer, and right click>merge down, then go to layer>layer style>stroke, and set your stroke settings to this, and your drop shadow settings to this, and press OK.
Now select your paint bucket tool, and click once on your background layer, and fill it with the first color of your color scheme so you end up with this. Then click once on the new raster layer icon in the lower right corner, and take your sun vector brush, set the color as the second color of your color scheme, and click once on that new layer, so it looks like this. Now take your magic wand tool, and set your settings to anti-alias and sample all layers, and click once on your vector, so you have this. Now go to your brush tools section, and click on a 15-30px circle brush, and set the color as one of the other colors of your color scheme, and color every two vectors that color, so it looks like this, and do the same for the last color, so that it looks like this. Then go to layer>layer style>drop shadow, and set your settings like this, and press OK. Now right click on your vectors, and go to layer via copy, then go to layer>layer style>stroke, and set your stroke settings to this, and you pattern settings to this, and press OK.
Now click once on the layer above the background/bottom layer, and set your magic wand settings to anti-alias and contiguous, then click on every other two vectors to make your way around, so it looks like this. Now make a new layer, and basically fill it with any brush you want the whole way around, so that it looks like this, then right click on the image and deselect. Now, click again on the layer above the background/bottom layer, and select the next vector over from the one you just brush-filled, so you have this, and make a new layer, and fill that with brushes as well, so you have this, then deselect, and do the process once more, only with the vector over (click once on the bottom/background layer, click the vectors, make new layer, fill with brushes) so that you have this.
Then go to layer>flatten image, add text and you're done!
Here is my final product!
