Example		Description
Before	After	Fine-tuned radial waves and "source image" background mode to show a pattern of simple dots that seem to follow the skin of the elephant in this drawing.
Before	After	The most effective custom shapes are simple and have no unnecessary detail. This surfer image demonstrates how applying three independant layers of a simple shape but with different settings can create unique designs.
Before	After	Use of the four card suit shapes included with Halftone™ on eight different gradient layers to create a complex border. The corners of the layers are erased using a very soft brush and the some parts of the inside is erased to remove some dots at unwanted locations.
Before	After	Pentagram custom shape with high rotational jitter and 50% placement jitter applied to a gradient image with transparency for the background. The resulting image was then cut and transformed to more closely match the shape of the car and mixed using Linear Burn. Areas outside the "painted" area were erased by hand afterwards. Copper color was set afterwards by filling the halftone layer whilst preserving transparency.
Before	After	Custom shape applied to a gradient image (blurred white box in black border) with rotational jitter and background transparency. The image of the cats is an underlying layer not used in the Halftone effect itself.
Before	After	Print/press CMYK halftone dithering effect. Applied a standard halftone effect to the independent color channels of a CMYK image. Using 15° rotation for Cyan, 75° for Magenta, 90° for Yellow and 45° for Black (K). These are the same angles as used in printers for color images.
		A simple grayscale photo processed using the default settings and pasted into a scanned newspaper layout.
Before	After	Identical halftone effect using default circles shape, applied to the independent color channels of an RGB image with 30° rotation steps starting from 15°. Similar to common print/press halftone dithering, but here applied to the additive RGB color model for novelty value.
		This example demonstrates several of the deformations available in Halftone. The orthogonal waves are most apparent in this example.
		Custom star shape applied twice (at different sizes) to a girls' portrait. Due to a transparent background the star pattern could be layered on top of a flag design using a shadow effect layer.
