First of all, thanks guys for you comments, that really keeps me motivated. For Oregonian, creating the stripes is simple, all you have to do is go to
Filters>>Render>>Pattern>>Grid... and change the setting to something like the image below or something that you like, just play with the settings.
I would like to thank Esper for doing a really good job writing the tutorial and I would like to explain 1 of those steps.

create new transparent layer on top of text layer
grow selection by 1
fill with black
shrink selection by 1
cut
I like to use the "Grow/Shrink Method" for my strokes, that gives me a better result than going to Select>>Stroke Selection. To prove it, here is the comparison. Of course, if you have the Layer Effect plugin, just use it instead and you should get a good result as well.
