Hello,
I’m trying to achieve an effect like the one shown in the linked picture below (a sort of low-res print effect, with print dots visible). Any ideas on how to make somethig like that?

You’re welcome. You can also use color image, but then you’ll get some color fringe. Color halftone’s maximum max. radius is 127 pixels, so it won’t do well if you want very large dots or use very high resolution.
