A deep variety of patterns plays can be made. Here's how I make an image look (when zoomed) like on a TV or monitor. I make a pattern with coloured pixels (they should look about grey when zoomed at 1:1). I fill a layer with this pattern and blend it with the images with the multiply mode (color filter). They may appear darken or otherwise changed, but zoom'em and it's the TV under magnifier. Examples of patterns: http://img391.imageshack.us/img391/2221/steagulromanieigq6.jpg a simple rgb row http://img391.imageshack.us/img391/354/tvpixelsqy6.jpg A square pattern, you can replace the black pixels with other colors. Having this image open get the value channel from this image (not desaturate or create mask grey copy) and invert it. Create a mask for this layer and copy/paste this channel in it, then disable the mask (control click in layer window). If you want to replace the non-coloured pixels' color execute mask to selection on this layer, choose the desired color as BG or FG and execute edit->fill with BG or FG. Save the .pat file and test all versions you desire. This is the simple one. A deep variety of patterns plays can be made. Here’s how I make an image look (when zoomed) like on a TV or monitor.

I purposely made it less opaque than the rest of the scanlines around the image. Good point though, sometimes the scanlines need to be darker. @Jeff T: Actually I made a seperate scanline layer to overlay the person’s skin.

(Depending on the image) In your case, the scanlines are hardly visible at certain parts (the right side and the person's skin) You should probably ramp up the opacity to about 35-40. (However this does overkill it a bit in the middle) This tut is great but I think you should turn up the opacity on the lines up a bit. (Depending on the image)
