I use Flaming Pear's Glitterato filter in Photoshop. I do it on a separate layer, invert it so the "stars" are black and the empty space white. From there you can either "Chose Color Range" and delete the black all together, or use Multiply or Screen over your texture. When I have black dots instead of white, I lighten them up to a med gray and then colorize. When you get the color you want, set the layer to Overlay or Soft Light over your texture, adjusting the opacity as you see fit. After that, it's just a matter of erasing what you don't want. Hope that made sense ;o). Laurie
