They look like textures. The smoky effect may be from a brush or texture with lowered opacity and/or changed blending mode. The boxes seem to be a texture, from what I see in a zoomed in view:
 Sorry it's not much help. You can try asking the creator for the specific details. |

^ Yup. They're brushes and/or white textures set to soft light.

There are a number of ways to use textures.
If you are new to Photoshop, I would strongly urge you to go through the incredibly helpful tutorials here. Photoshop Tutorials |

oh i just meant where do i load them at.
ignore last question. Merged posts. Please try to use the edit button instead of double posting. :) Also, your signature is too big. ;) QUOTE SIGNATURES Signatures should not take up more than 300 pixels of vertical space (equivalent to 20 lines of text) and 548 pixels of horizontal space (to prevent from stretching). Signature images should be less than 100kB in file size when combined. They may only contain references and links to personal pages, such as your blogs and profiles; references and links to anything that is not personal, such as websites and outside forums are not allowed. Community Guidelines I'll give you some time to fix it before it gets removed. :) This post has been edited by Duchess of Dork: Dec 21 2006, 01:13 PM |

As in how to use them? In Photoshop, you can copy and paste the texture onto your canvas. Then play around. Change the layer opacity and/or blending mode. :)

In PSP too. For that particular sort of effect, start with something like... Screen, soft light or lighten. Those two make things lighter. If you want a more harsh texture then you should use things like overlay and multiply.
You can always use the other styles too, but those five tend to be the best choices. I think PSP should have those... |
