I am working on some creatures and templates. I am not sure what CR to give them. Is there a chart that helps determine what the CR should be based on HD, spell-like abilites, psi-like abilites, special abilities, etc?

Teh system I use is mostly based off common sense: take average HP, divide by 4.5, rounding to the nearest, then adding 1, 2, or 3 per special attack or special quality (Depending on ability power), then dividing by 3. This provides fairly accurate CR, but breaks down quickly towards the high HD spectrum. :D
