I'm designed my DVD cover, but for my "Title" on my front cover is small.

I used the Text Tool and typed up the title with the biggest font 72p, but I want to make it bigger.

Isn't there a way just to select it, then "drag" it bigger? It's probably something really simple and right under my nose, but can't find it.

It's frustrating me because I was able to use layers and other effects, but the most simplest thing is driving me crazy. I tried Googling the question, but I can't find the answer.

Anyone? I would really appreciate it.

you can type in larger font values than 72. .. the listed values are simply the ones the font is available at "natively".

Also, with the Text layer selected, hit [ctrl] + [T] and you'll activate the "transform" tool/mode. Once you have happily dragged the text to the size you like, hit [enter] to commit the changes.
