folks should differentiate between their own work, and work of others that they're posting.

fireypantfella,

nothing has changed in two years. i need to redo it, but i just don't have the motivation.

^ I'd imagine it be just like going through the tutorial, only it'd include just the stuff you really need to know, plus shortcuts.

 

I learned it by sitting down in front of it and just figuring shit out and reading the book. Technically...I'm still learning it. The "Bible" series of books are really, really good for learning programs.

I'll go ahead and disagree, the Bible books are NOT so good in my opinion for people with next to no knowledge of the app. I think they are way too dense, and chalk full of extra info. The Bibles are really good reference books once you have the a bit more then the basics under your belt.

 

As I taught Illustrator for a while I would recommend the the Adobe Classroom in A Book series for Illustrator; Its made by Adobe, who makes Illustrator, so its fairly thorough, in its approach.

Definatly gotta agree. I used photoshop for 4 years until I started school and used Illustrator for the 1st time. 2 totally different programs. I'm liking illustrator more and more now. I got the classroom in a book and my freind bought the whole bible series... he had previously used all the programs. Id have to say that learning illustrator hands on was a big help cause I dont like to read books.

i agree, for an intro to the basic skills going solo, adobe classroom in a book. the Bible is more useful once you have grasp on the app. and its workings etc.
