Is there a way in Photoshop to quickly pull up a 4 line grid (2 lines vertical/2 horizontal evenly spaced) for composition purposes?

I can roughly guess it, but it'd be much easier with a quick grid.

I wanted to help you out but this is all I could think of and what I do ..

I use the pattern tool to make my grids . I make a new Doucument " 10 x 10 Pixels " Transparent Background.
Then You ZOOM all the way in the 10x10 blank image. Get the Pencil Tool and simply just color in like i did in the picture below.
After that you click " EDIT " at the top left , Then Define Pattern so you can make the pattern.

And heres the result under just using the pattern tool , good luck. I You want to make the grid bigger , I think you can Just change the size of the document so its a larger pattern your making.

Uhm - guides or a grid? Because if you find out how to make guide shortcuts, please tell me - I use them a lot on the borders for rounded corners.

Silly peoples...

Step 1: Edit > Preferences > Guides, Grids, Slices, etc... Enter the preferences you desire here (how often you want a line, etc).
Step 2: View > Show > Grid
Step 3: Tell Omni how cool he is

Also, konfusion, the grid from the method above functions similar to guides in the sense that objects "lock" to the lines.

Well that's not entirely what I'm looking for.

I mean the rule of thirds.
Always have 2 lines vertical and 2 lines horizontal, evenly space, no matter the size of the document.
