In website mockups, I design the front page, then duplicate layers constantly for other pages design. Things like the header and footer stay basically the same, so they are copied. Their exact location or dimensions may need to change, though.

Is there a way have an "asset" folder where I'm re-using an image that's already loaded in the PSD, and only modifying dimensions/coordinates? (I'd like to re-use the same layer data for responsive, just shrink it down in size - so if I change the color of the header for example, the smaller responsive header would change as well)

The goal is to get away from multiple PSDs for each page, and just have one PSD for a web project. However, the file is too large right now, but most of the size comes from tons of duplication.

Smart object (Daily Useful Repository)
Smart Objects are layers that contain image data from raster or vector images, such as Photoshop or Illustrator files. Smart Objects preserve an image's source content with all its original characteristics

We can use with Innovative way

This will be helping me out with inner page designs, we can use this method for common stuff in front page to continue with all other pages (in master common smart object if there is any update - we don't need to update all files just update smart object and we are done with all files)
