Description
i've had a bunch of people ask me how to do this (possibly because i use the halftone effect so freaking much), so i figured i'd make a simple tutorial explaining it so i don't keep having to. then i added some sashas to amuse myself. hopefully it is big enough to be readable.hope this helps. i use Photoshop CS, but from my experience with CS2 and 3 it's pretty much the same.
blahblah sasha's mine, she was made w/ microns, but most everything is alllll photoshop.

What version of photoshop are you using? The older ones don't support it :\

I'm only really familiar up to CS5, but it seems like a weird option to remove.

Wow this is amazing. So much easier than trying to track down halftones in certain colors or sizes, etc. to fit my needs. You're the best! <3

Did you change all the lower settings to 45?

I think so... I tried another method a while later, and that worked... So maybe my photoshop just got a bit overheated or something xD

I don't remember if I commented yet or not, but... anyways. This really helped me! Thanks.
Mine kinda have a giant black dot in the middle. Not sure if it's because I have a lame-ass old fart version of Elements, or not...

Do you think it the same step with another program, like gimp?
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Actually, I tried it in Gimp and you can do something similar, you just have to click on the "Filters" tab, and then go to "Distorts" and then "Newsprint".
[This replaces the step where she has the "Pixelate" & "Color Halftone" parts].

Is there a way of making two colour combinations I'm totally missing?
I get how to make it white+colour but I want a purple+pink one and I keep messing it up
