brucie's answer was good, but it's probably overkill if you "only" want a
tinted effect.
If you want a tinted effect then you should be able to create a
checker-board effect GIF file:
CTCTCTCTCTCT
TCTCTCTCTCTC
CTCTCTCTCTCT
TCTCTCTCTCTC
CTCTCTCTCTCT
TCTCTCTCTCTC
where the T pixels are transparent and the C pixels are your colour.
Then set that GIF to be the background image.
See examples 2 and 3 on this page:
http://examples.tobyinkster.co.uk/translucency/example
Though also read example 1.
For a practical demonstration of the effect, visit my site (URL in sig) in
a decent browser (e.g. Opera or Mozilla) and choose one of these style
sheets from the drop down menu: Purple Flower, Red Flower, Saturn, Wheat.
