When using Photoshop, you most likely use its templates, but after a while you will find that the pre-installed templates are not enough for you. Why not use your own? You will find instructions here on how to make a Photoshop template yourself.
Steps
1 Open a new Photoshop document. Go to File New and open a document. Choose 3 pixels by 3 pixels on a transparent background. Take a look at the picture on the right side for more details.
2 Make your template. In this example, we are going to create a side mesh.
3 Click on Edit and select for Define Template. Give a name to your template and click OK.
4 Use your new template. Click on the Paint Bucket, click on Edit Template but not Foreground, select the template and click on the image you are working in. Take a look at the illustration for more details.
5 Your template is ready. You can use it wherever you want.
