How to use it in Adobe Photoshop
Download, unzip, load the asset, then tweak until it fits your design.
- Download the ZIP file using the button below.
- Unzip the archive to a clean folder.
- Open Adobe Photoshop and load the included files (brushes via the Brushes panel; textures via Place/Embed; mockups/effects by editing Smart Objects).
- Apply it to your text or layer, then adjust size and position.
- Fine-tune opacity, blending mode, and color until the result feels balanced.
Practical tips
- Use Smart Objects when possible for clean scaling.
- Try a different blending mode before you give up on the look.
- Lower opacity first, then adjust contrast.
- Duplicate your layer before applying anything.
- Test it on both light and dark backgrounds.
If something looks “too much,” small changes usually fix it. Opacity, blending mode, and a soft mask solve most issues.
One last thing: keep your source files organized. If you save a versioned PSD and name layers clearly, using Motion Gradient Text Effect across a full project becomes much smoother.

The listed license is Personal & Commercial use. For important jobs, read the license text inside the download.
Will it work on older versions?

For best results, preview at 100% zoom before exporting. Tiny edges and artifacts show up there first, not after you upload it.
