Too bad I dont know what blending or gradients are/is. I checked in my art program but I could only find options for gradient mapping. I'm confused :s Thanks for the kind words anyway.
By the way, what kind of art programs do people use? I use Adobe Photoshop Elements 6.0.

We just use adobe photoshop cs2 or cs3 or whatever they are basically the same.
Go to www.pixel2life.com and see some tutorials on how to make website buttons or metal textures etc and its basically the same technique

Gradients: A smother transition between two or more colours. It's like when one colour gradually changes colour to become another. Gradients are usefull for shading and highlighting, but you can use them in other ways. (Gradients are a layer effect, and also an object in CS2, im not sure about elements though, but i think its the same)
Blending: This is the way in which two colour interact. The default blending is when you simply 'see through' the top colour into subsequent colours. However it should be noted that it will retain its brightness. Other useful options such as 'darken', 'burn', 'hue' or 'colour' have different effects and uses. They are very useful if you know how to use them. (blending options are found on the layer pallet in CS2, so maybe the same for you)
