They are determined somewhat by genetics, it will be a combination of the parents patterns. When a pair mates, their spots may shift to become more similar to one another. They also come in handy to identify Na'vi from a distance at night because of the luminescent spot patters and because each Na'vi has a unique pattern.
This is all I know.

Looks liekly to be determined by genetics, and the characteristics of the individual.
Genetic markings give place and status, and people can make relations to other family members, prehaps those that have the most prominent markings, are the ones that are most dedicated and loyal to eywa.

I don't think there is any actual detail of how they occur. It could be a symbiotic relationship I guess, but I'd bet it's more likely to be specially adapted cells (the markings all have a similar pattern, and every lifeform on Pandora has some, to varying degrees)

I also remember reading in the Activist Survival Guide that they're all unique, like our fingerprints (I think it was the ASG, I remember reading that somewhere, and I own the ASG so that seems to be where, but I'll check when I get home just to be sure)
Also, they are sexy! I'm getting a black light tattoo in a design like the Na'vi, on my back, chest, arms, maybe legs. still designing, I have pages of designs

I remember reading somewhere that different clans have different colors and/or patterns...
