I don't have the tutorial in front of me, but I remember something along these lines:

1) Fill the layer with grey.
2) Use the Add Noise Filter.
3) Use the motion blur filter (or maybe wind filter?).

I'd guess that you would play with the opacity of this. Hopefully someone else has a tutorial for this.

Here's one. It's pretty much what Glen suggested with the addition of a gradient fill:

Harron,

That's an absolutely cool website with great tutorials! Easy, step-by-step tutorials. I just got Photoshop CS about a week ago and can't wait to get started on those tutorials.

Thanks for the URL to PhotoShopCafe
