Another Way to Do Design Grids

Sue mentioned that she has Fiberworks PCW Bronze, and apparently that doesn't have the sketchpad feature. So.... here's another option to try, if you've got Photoshop. (You can probably do this with Elements, too.)

Create a new file and set it's size to 11 pixels wide and 16 pixels high (or whatever dimensions you think you will need for your design.) Turn on a Grid that is set for lines between every pixel. Now increase the magnification to the max (1600%.) Now you can play with the pixels in the grid to your heart's content.

Note the magnification level in the bottom left corner - highlighting it and changing the value to 1600 is the fastest way to zoom all the way in.
