December, 12th update: How to create big pop art circle in Photoshop, VIDEO tutorial
Little update: please make sure to set up the image in Grayscale mode before applying the filter.
And, please, please: it has to be done on a background layer! Don’t create a new layer.
Create a new document in Photoshop. Make sure it is in equally proportional dimensions (like 600×600 pixels or similar). Fill it in using „Radial gradient“ from black (inside) to transparent (outside).

Use „Custom fill“ option, and make gradient as in the image below (or similar).

Now use Filter –> Pixelate –> Color Halftone, and play with the options (for example radius size depends on the size of your document).

Voila!

Go even furter - vectorize this image, play with it and enjoy the results.
See you next Thursday, same place :)

[…] then in July I posted one tutorial named: How to create big popart circle in Photoshop. Since then I received many questions, comments and emails that tutorial doesn’t work in CS3… […]
excelent
what you do for cs3 is you go into quick mask mode, make a circle out of the masked “red”, apply the blur to it, then apply the halftone to it just like in here, then get out of quick mask mode, and fill the selection with whatever color you want and voila
