Creating a Fanta type blend

Hi guys,

I have seen it before somewhere but I cant find it again. I want to know how I can createa fanta type blend, ie mask where the circles blend into each other. Kind of like http://folk.uio.no/tfredvik/amo/jpg/fanta.jpg (background dots) but bigger. And I tried it with the glass "lens" effect and it doesnt work because the lenses are not circles and are not fully separated to be able to blend them in. So acan anyone help me plz?

You should look into gradients.
Search on google for: photoshop + tutorial + gradients

Are you refering to the "Techno Dots" effect? Search google for Photoshop Techno Dots and there will be quite a few tutorials...

Marbles lead sounds about right, I suppose you could also play around with half-tones

make a selection in quick mask mode, go filter>pixelate>halftone dots, then adjust your setting and bam, that's it.

OK, Thnx. Techno dots are good but that is not what I am after. The way techno dots appear / blend is not uniformly. What I mean is that say it was a transition from black to white. I want to make a Uniform identical blend for both black in white so if you inverse the image colors and spin it around you would not know the difference. Get me?

I think techno dots are what you are looking for most definetly. To get the gradient, you have to have a gradient blur before you use the half tone filter.

Nuke can you give me a demo?

KraneKick is right,

it is a Halftone pattern doen to a quickmask and then filled with a color. You can get this trick from Scott Kelby's Down & Dirty Tricks for Photoshop 7 book, he calls it Pop Dots.

Yeah, pop dots from pop(ular) art, like Andy Warhol's stuff.
