Create a “rule-of-thirds” grid
Don’t use the grid view very often? Then turn it into a rule-of-thirds grid. In Photo-shop, press Command-K (PC: Ctrl-K) to open your Preferences. Click on Guides, Grid & Slices from the list on the left and change the settings for the Grid section as follows: Gridline every 100 percent, Subdivisions 3, and click OK. This creates a grid that divides the image into thirds both horizontally and vertically. When you turn on the grid by pressing Command-‘ (PC: Ctrl-‘(apostrophe)), a rule-of-thirds grid will be superimposed over the image.
That is a neat tip!
Thanks for sharing!!
Tha last step will not work for me! What am I doing wrong>?

Thanks for the great tip….the box out beside the box where you type in every 100 has to be changed to percent if it says inches the grid will not appear in thirds over your pics.
Good it works for me. Now I need more: Golden section, how to cut in 3 differents area using divine proportion instead of rule of third?
If the last step, command- doesn’t work, try command’ (command plus single quote)
