Hello everyone,
I am a beginner in photoshop but I do understand the basics. I am trying to follow this tutorial but its written badly for a beginner, So I request you to kindly rephrase it or explain this much better...the key points.

Hi oops2001, the tutorial is already pretty clear. What aspect are you having a problem with? If it's the gradient make sure you have a foreground to transparent selected.

After creating a new layer and using the brush tool to paint the spray, you need to Ctrl+click on this layer (in the layers palette) to select it (marching ants). Then press Ctrl+Shift+C (copy merged) or go to Edit>Copy Merged.

I think in essence he is asking you to create two paint layers and move one behind the text and one in front of the text layer.
