@Magnus: First off thanks! To answer your question, yes, the text would be merged with the black background, but you will still be able to add it to another image. Merge all the layers from this tutorial, then copy the new layer to the other image you are working on. Then add a layer mask to your flaming text layer and set the Mode to Screen. The only drawback will be that the background needs to be somewhat dark. Hope that helps

This tutorial is going to teach you how to create a blazing flame text effect in Photoshop using the Smudge Tool and multiple filters such as Wave Distort and various Blur operations. The grayscale text is colored using the Indexed Image Mode's, Black Body, and color table. Your final results will look something like this.
