Freebie: Pixel Patterns for Transparencies in Photoshop

Transparency in web design is very popular these days. A transparent screen over an image makes a light or dark text stand out on a multi-colored photograph. Going a little further, designers are also using pixel patterns to create a mesh over the image. This is not a difficult process, even making the pattern for Photoshop is not complicated, but having a selection of such patterns is just another way of saving time in the middle of a high-pressure project or set of projects.

So today we have created a free pattern set with pixel patterns to give different levels of transparency and to add an extra dimension to darkening or lightening images.
