I'm a bit new to using halftones. I would love to use them more frequently in my designs. However, I facing some problems. I have yet to find an easy way to create and use them. Typically I work in Adobe Illustrator, and Photoshop. At present my method of halftoning in creating a bunch of circles and moving them into place, resizing and croping as needed. If anyone as a better way, a template or anything that would help, please help a brother out.

for photoshop, i usually create a gradient of what i want halftoned, copy that into a new file, convert to grayscale then convert to bitmap at 20-30 dpi, convert it back to grayscale and bring the halftone back to the original file, then do a color overlay.
