Well Alot of times i go.
Fill the block with what ever colour of paint you want.
You know how to do this.
press Ctrl + A.
Render>
Then pick one.
They all are differnt and are quite cool if you use the bars.

I quite often use:
pick the two colours u want, one light 1 dark
filter -> Render -> Clouds
Then I use a distortion effect on it, usually ripple or shear

You can also download brushes off the internet; Google something along the lines of grunge Photoshop brushes. Just search around you'll find some that appeal to you.

One last thing is you can use renders called C4D renders which are totally abstract, and with a bit of lighting can make really good backgrounds, as an example:

SMUDGE!!!! Duplicate your render a few times, choose different brushes, change the scattering and such, smudge away. Add a C4D that flows with the render or makes it flow, set it on color or lighten and lower to opacity to make it look good, i might post a PS CS2 tut.

Main tool used is the Brush tool. You can download or make new brushes. You can also use a gradient, which adds flavor to the background.
