    Looks good, and the steps are very straightforward ones. Not much of layering and other stuff involved.

      Yes Off course it is possible.. the important thing is, you have to change color mode and flatten the 'text' layer.. you will get 'Wind' effect easily from filters --> Stylize ---> Wind..

    Is there a way to do this with a transparent background? When I try to this method in transparent the color balance doesn't shift green leaving the words and wind effect white. Works perfectly with a black background though thank you!
