   eh...thank you very much, i'm actually EXTREMELY new to 'the gimp' but eh, in 3 days just searching on gimpusers and gimp-tutorials, etc...gives you so much knowledge that it's actually educational, and the reason i've been doing it so much is because, lately...my internet has like been relly slow so i can't play halo lol...anyways thanks, friends ^.^?

   if you pixelize the result again with
   a smaller pixel-size, blur again, detect egdges again and overlay this with the first result you can get something like this

    It's been a while since I created this one, so I don't remember every step. But if you follow this, you should create something like it.
    
    1) create a b/w Text layer (b text)(ca 1000x500)
    2) create a clouds layer, set blend mode to lighten
    3)merge layers
    4)pixelize ( ca 12,text should still be readable)
    5) blur ( 3px)
    6)detect edges (roberts)
    7)rescale image ( 2000x1000)
    8) duplicate layer
    9)set top layer blend mode to screen
    10)pixelize 5 px (top layer)
    11)blur 1 px (top )
    12) detect edges (sobel)(top) layer
    13) merge layers, add colors and scale down again
    
    i hope this helps, perhaps you can figure out on your own how to improve it.
