ER'DAY 19

   For today's ER'DAY, I've made something useful again. A photoshop action that automatically generates a template file with a 12 or 16 column grid on a 970px wide base, as well as creates a folder structure to get started right away.

   A bit handier than a template PSD, as it can be assigned to a hotkey and just hit when you open photoshop for each new mockup. Good for rapid iterations.

   Download the full action from my tumblr: http://erday.tumblr.com/post/9712379388/day-19-for-todays-erday-ive-made-something-so

   Damn that's slick. Thanks! This is the first I've heard of 970 though… What about 960/1140?

   Sorry, I guess I explained that stupidly... it actually is a 960 grid, just with an extra 5 pixels on the left and right. Allows for a touch more background space on either side (it's the format I use, based on the 960.gs, but up to 980 is usable space). I might actually modify it to 960 as that's more popular anyway. Iterate!

   I'll probably do an 1140 as well, but the guides require a lot of time to set up as an action, and I gotta work :P
