Dots: put a dark and a light over a middle tone.
Layer blending: there's no real secret. Read up on layer masking and blending modes and then experiment.

All the illusion is, is a dark pixel next to a lighter pixel sitting on a background that's in between those values.
You can variate it using lines, different shapes, etc.
Just take a screenshot of that header. Paste it in PS. Zoom in all the way and you'll see what I mean.

how do you do the gradients??
I've been trying to make the round gradient things at the header and can't seem to do it! This is more slick that I know how to do it.
Can anyone help?

The "curvy" gradient effect, is probably done in Flash, as it seems to be animated.
