    Get the desired font first of all. Then you could just mess around with gradients and emobossments until it looks acceptable. Try out http://good-tutorials.com, they have some good stuff.

    You need image of some dust surface as overlay. Also use inner bevel effect for edges. Thats all.

    Here's what I have so far. I have the font and gradient, but I'm not sure how to get the texture going. I'm a noob at photoshop, and I haven't worked with fonts much.

    I attached a picture of what I have, and what my goal is.

    Well, I have the basic text done, but I'm not really sure how to get the craggy look.
