| Tip*-. *Tip- It's best to change the Opacity to get the grid lighter. (This tutorial used an opacity of 20% only to show you how it looks. It would look better in an other opacity but for this tutorial we used 20%.) When applying a pattern open up a new layer, that way you can change the opacity a lot easier and add different kinds of effects too. |
