In this tutorial you are going to learn how to make your own version of "The Matrix Code" for your backgronds.
First start out with new document and make sure the background is WHITE or Background Colour and NOT Transparent otherwise it will not work.
I chose a standard banner of 648 x 60 but you can choose anything you want. (TIP: its better if you have a longer image then fatter to make lining in the background less visible.)
Next go to Filter > Texture > Grain...

In the grain settings for Grain Type choose Verticle. Intsity To 46 or your desire. and Contrast to [/b]14[/b] or your desire.
Next select Filter > Stylize > Solarize
And finnaly press Ctrl+U to open your Hue editor and click Colourize. And set your settings to
Hue: 130
Saturation: 100
Lightness: +1
To make that matrix colour feel. or mess around with the colours to your likings. Your final image should look like this.
