Very nice. 
I don't know how to use PS at all. Yes, I know it's hard to believe. I just never got into it, that's all.
How did you create the flame effect? Did it take a special program to do it or something?

G5^2(squared)?...i'm confused...if you are implying dual processor, wouldn't it be G5x2?
i believe the lfame effect is a third party filter in eye candy.
perhaps this type of thing would better be submitted to MacSnaps, part of the FunMac Network

actually the flame effect was done manually with just the default features of Photoshop 7
no eyecandy or other 3rd party filters
i liked G5 ^2.. thats all

Looks very nice, but lose the 'G5 squared' thing. It just doesn't make much sense. Good job on the PS stuff.
okay here is a 1600x1200 without the exponent for those who dont like it
and here is a 1920x1200 for those with 23 in cinema displays!
Okay, but how would you use PS to make a flame? If it's too difficult to explain, and would take hours for you to write and days for me to try, then fuggitaboutit.
k well first
make a black background
take your text (in white)
rotate it 90 degrees
apply the wind filter 3-4 times.
rotate it back
blur it..
overlay a yellow hue
duplicate the layer then overlay a red hue
screen the red on the yellow
flatten this onto its own layer
liquify the red/yellow result
into a flame like look. and there ya go
i wont tell you everything. but tutorials are available online and in magazines
i realize im not being very detailed. but it is fairly easy and can give spectacular results.!
i think it works better for thinner fonts..
