Andy Budd grid overlay bookmarklet

Andy Budd, author of CSS Mastery & Blog Design Solutions, whipped up a pair of indispensible browser bookmarklets. Anyone who has created a website probably uses some form of a pixel grid to double check DIV element positioning and spacing during the initial structuring of a web page. Andy’s bookmarklets allow users to overlay their layouts with a transparent pixel perfect grid for positioning elements. Grab your bookmarklets from Andy Budd’s Blogography.
Discovering these bookmarklets made me question why I wasted so much time flipping between TextMate, Photoshop, and my browser(s).

I starting using Andy’s grid tool the day it was released. The beauty is that it’s so head-slappingly simple that I can’t believe none of us have ever thought of it before.

Isn’t that how things generally are? The simplest things often slip our minds and the moment someone else presents the idea, we slap ourselves thinking why didn’t I think of that?
