This is how you can set "grids" up in Photoshop if you want to use them as a guide.

Good examples, James. I appreciate so much the very high level of educational/technical content on this site. Thanks a bunch for that!!

Thanks for this post as I didnt know the 'grids' feature existed on photoshop, might come in handy. Come to think of it there seems to be a lot more I dont know about it

James thanks for the information. Now, how do you show the grid on the picture that you are working on?

James Shadle · Jan 21, 2010

Myer,
See pane #6 of this thread.

James
I set up my Preferences as shown on slide 6 but the grid doesn't appear on when a picture is open

When PS is open go to View>Show>Grid and you should be good to go. To toggle the grid on and off the keyboard shortcut is Command-Apostrophe (Mac) and Control-Apostrophe (PC). Very nice tutorial James.

Thanks Jeff

Thank you, James, that feature is quite obscure in CS4, but thanks to your tutorial, I found it!
