your font is too small, so small that the entire gradient doesn't cover it.

You can always just do a gradient overlay...

There is another way..but it's more complicated, but, if the first doesn't work i'll explain.

Umm.. I don't know if I'm right but it seems like you did it right though. It's just the fact that you're font size is too small. I used firefox to view the image and I can see the rainbow`ish colors. But in Internet Explorer, it looks way different. Doesn't look clean like in FireFox. But, I think you did it right though. Have you tried to change the file format? Make it to .PNG and save it on imageshack or photobucket if It doesn't resize it or whatever it does. Then, you can probably see.

Hmm. The font ehh? I think this might work. Double Click on the "font layer", or find the F on the layer pallette. Then go to gradient and check the box next to it, and click on the color gradient box and choose whatever gradient you want.
