Question Grid Photoshop

Greg DAlessandro

Does anyone know how to create specific size grids in photoshop?
This is what I am trying to achieve:



Several size grids: all 2k images
2x2 up to 12x12 grids.
I'm trying to figure out how to create precise grids like this.

What you want is

edit ---> preferences ---> Guides, Grid & Slices...

But how do you actually create the lines?

I clicked View > Show > Grid, and the grid shows up, but I need to "bake" that grid onto the layer.

The issue with taking a screenshot is that it is only at 33% of the actual size.

What? Zoom in so it is 100% Then. Take multiple screenshots if the image bigger than what can fit on your screen.

That's true, I also realized I can just copy paste the grid to widen the image.

could make an image thats 32x32 px or whatever the resolution of your 1 grid size it, then Edit - Define Pattern. Then create a new document at target resolution, and Edit - Fill - Pattern - Select your pattern. Or what I prefer in the Layer pallette - Create new Fill or Adjustment Layer icon at bottom, select Pattern - then select your pattern you defined - you can also use this to scale the pattern.

I created this:
200x200px image:


Then this 2k image:


Now all I have to do is do the other grids (2 - 12)

Actually I'm not sure how to do the other sizes that have decimal points:
2000 / 11 = 181.81812 etc
