Grids...

#1 Post by YesItIsh »

How could you make the grids with Photoshop 7 or PSP8?

The easiest way is to define a pattern, in PS7 at least.

Just make a 4x4 (or whatever size grid you want; the bigger the square the larger the grid squares) and just draw a line along the bottom and the right side. Press Ctrl+A, Edit-->Define Pattern, and you can fill with it then.

For PSP 8, I use the blinds tool. :)

Same here DM, but I can't figure out how to get a proper grid .. you know - with squares not just lines?

I can explain it in PSP8 - do the first lot of lines (blinds feature), then go through the same steps - this time checking the box that says 'Horizontal' (or unchecking it if you had it checked before.)

Of course, the other option is to just use a brush :)
