Quickly find the center of any document
First things first - fill a layer with your Foreground color.
Click on the Create a New Layer icon in the Layers palette and press Alt-Backspace on your PC (Option-Delete on a Mac) to fill it with your Foreground color.
Make your rulers visible - press Control-R (Command-R on a Mac) and drag a guide down from the top ruler. When you get close to the center of the image, the guide will automatically snap to the exact horizontal center.
[Tip - make sure Snap is turned on under the View menu.]
Do the same with the side ruler, and it automatically snaps to the vertical center of your image.
Where the 2 guides intersect is the exact center of your document!
