Title: Illustrator help (Tutorials wanted)
Post by: Bones on February 13, 2005, 06:20:27 am

I am struggling learning illustrator. Does anybody know of any good tutorials? (I already have Frostillicus tutorial which was good but seeking more info.)

I seem to be bouncing from web page to web page and not finding anything helpful.

Thanks!  :)

Actually, the main thing that p's me off about Illustrator is how difficult it is sometimes to just grab and move a point on a line. It's like you have to click this very small precise area, otherwise it pops up a warning prompt. VERY annoying.

Other than that, it's of course, a great app.

I have to say I am completely new to Illustrator but I think its awesome. The more I learn about it the more I am impressed with it.

Unfortunately my artwork still sux but that ain't Illustrators fault...

Try http://www.thewebmachine.com/

They have nice tutorials for most of Adobe's range.  The tutorials are very well explained with screenshots etc.
