Sometimes a designer might use a grid layout then for some reason position certain items off the grid. What's the best way to position these items? They might be set in the the grids gutter, therefore making the particular row unaligned.

20,597 PointsTbh its not best practise to do work like this if you wanted to use a grid i would suggest using a website like gridulator they allow you to create a grid and then download a grid you can easily import into Ps and use for your designs, i would suggest that for mobile design you don't need a grid but as you work unto tablets and desktops its best to use the grid in Ps and then it will be easier to copy the exact design in html & css hope this helps you
