10 tips for Photoshop web design

Use grid systems

01 Use grid systems
Grid systems can save a lot of headaches in web design. Try using free resources like Cameron McEfee’s GuideGuide Photoshop extension and the Grid System Generator to make custom grids easy and accurate.

02 Get it all out
One of the best practices for successful web design (and time management) is to place all elements on your Photoshop canvas before you get dirty with design. Web designers often jump right into one particular area without considering the rest of page and the weight of content. Getting the rough framework into place quickly will ensure smarter decisions early on and avoid larger edits later.
