How to Create an Overlay

[Wayno72]

As part of the output required for some product photography (jewellery photography) I have been asked to save the photos in a standardised way.

What would be the best way to create some sort of template to make this task consistent? Can I create a template through the crop tool, or a layer, grid lines or something else?

I have attached a picture with an example of what I am referring to.

Cheers.

We have to make assumptions going only from your image. 

Is there a designated pixel size for instance?

Is the square aspect ratio a requirement?

I'm thinking you could use the Crop tool set to W H Resolution and enter the required image size but put 'px' after the size to show you mean pixels.  

The template has a grid overlay which you could set up and save.  Click on the 'Custom' drop down, and chose Save Preset. You can then add it to each image _after_ you have cropped it.
