i am wondering…what is the easiest way to get the same effect that [www.designchapel.com](http://www.designchapel.com) has on his main page, on the first illustation of that girl sitting down (the transparent lines accross everything?) ---

create a 2x2 pixel doc…zoom in like to 1600 make a black bgrd (or whatever color) use the pencil tool to make a white dot in the upper left corner… flatten image then go edit >\>define pattern. now on your main image create a new layer. then go edit\>\>fill choose pattern find your pattern then press okay. it should fill the layer with that patter. if you make a selection first then make a new layer it will fill the selection. ---
