Hello. I'm trying to pixel art with photoshop (tried pixel art software but I still prefer photoshop instead)

The problem is photoshop isn't well aligned. I don't know why.

I've searched for tutorials and so many other info in google. Thinks like "setting photoshop up for pixel art" and i've found usefull tutorials but when i do the same, i got this weird pixel allingment.

This is a pic with a 3200% zoom in:

As you can see, the Grid is not accurate. But in all the pics I've seen on the Internet it is. WHY ME!?

I need my Grid to look like this:

I've have Change options in Preferences -> Grid: every 1 pixels.
Also in View -> Snap to -> Grid.


I know that i'm new here and the first post i made is to request and not give, but I really need help, can't find the answer anywhere else.
Also I hope you can understand me well as I do not properly speak english since i'm from Spain.

Thanks!

Thanks.
It's already active (see screenshot in spanish)
I expresed myself bad. My problem is that the Grid lines do not match the pixel position.


Anyway, I've solved this!!

The problem was in Preferences -> Guides, Grid & Slices

It was set like in many websites says:
Gridline every: 1 pixel
Subdivisions: 1

I just changed those values to 10 and now the Grid lines match with the pixels.
