    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        animateText("Hello /////.....//////", Button1.Location.Y - 20, Button1.Location.Y - 50, Button1.Location.X)
    End Sub
    Dim label As New Label
    Dim maxHeight As Integer
    Dim colour As Integer = 255
    Public Sub animateText(ByVal text As String, ByVal lowerBounds As Integer, ByVal upperBounds As Integer, ByVal xPos As Integer)
        maxHeight = upperBounds
        label.Text = text
        label.TextAlign = ContentAlignment.MiddleCenter
        label.Location = New Point(xPos, lowerBounds)
        label.Font = New Font(Font.Bold, 20) 'Feel free to customize the font size
        label.AutoSize = True
        Me.Controls.Add(label)
        Timer1.Enabled = True
    End Sub
    Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
        label.Location = New Point(label.Location.X, label.Location.Y - 1)
        label.ForeColor = Color.FromArgb(colour, colour, colour)
        colour -= 7
        If colour <= 10 Then
            colour = 10
        End If
        If label.Location.Y = maxHeight Then
            Timer1.Enabled = False
            Me.Controls.Remove(label)
            colour = 255
        End If
    End Sub
End Class

now you see something like "hello ..." that's the text you can edit it and after that debug the program and enjoy
