the white is what is used to 'lighten' the visual color - thats how halftones work
Thanks J Hill. I had assumed that was what was happening but wanted to ask.
Although perhaps not quite as convincing a 'fade', this is an example of the sort of thing I was thinking of.
I just wondered if there was a way to replace the white with another colour or any way of altering the amount of white the halftone uses.

To reduce the halftone effect, switch to Classical Dot and set your LPI to 70.7. Or, if you prefer, switch your halftone effect to Gerbertone Fine. This will make the halftone dots smaller.

halftone
This is done in Illustrator and takes three minutes, I perfer to make the halftone in Photoshop, bring it into Illustrator, vectorize it and then you get the dot pattern to be manipulated with color or transparencies, enlargement, etc. Then you do not get the white glow as this one has. But you get the idea.
