In web design we often have a number of elements in a design that are the same across multiple pages and designs. Typically this might be the website navigation menu and some side bar elements. In this question I am terming these objects.

I want to have a set of common objects that I use in multiple PSDs. When one of the objects is updated then this change should automatically be reflected across all of the PSDs that reference it.

These objects are likely to just be a few PSDs sitting in a folder that are pulled into the overall page design PSDs.

How can I do this with Photoshop? Perhaps there is a better or complimentary tool out there that deals with this problem. Any suggestions welcome.

Sadly this can't be achieved within photoshop, i had the same problem and tried it with smart objects, but with no luck. Any Smart Object is embedded into the psd, its no longer a reference.

See my question for the topic: Working with .psb in a psd
