Step 26 - Creating the Grid! -- E

Select the layer contents (instructions on how to do this are on step 13)

Step 27 - Creating the Grid! -- F

Go to Select > Modify > Contract, and choose 25px. If your squares are a little smaller or larger than mine, and this doesn't look good with these settings, than adjust as necessary.

Step 28 - Creating the Grid! -- G

Click OK. Man, that was an easy step!

Step 29 - Creating the Grid! -- H

Click backspace/delete to get the middle out of there. If necessary, deselect after this. Haha, that was easy too!

Step 30 - Creating the Grid! -- I

Duplicate this layer, and move the new layer to the right. Hit (control/command + E) to merge the layers, and then repeat. Do the same in a vertical direction, until you have 3 columns and 4 rows like below. Make sure all your squares are on one layer when your done (but not on that black layer that we've already talked about in Letter A).

Step 31 - Move the Grid

Hit (V) and move the grid to the bottom half and center it.

Step 32 - Make a Copy

Duplicate this grid layer and turn off the visibility for now.
