Intangible Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 i wish i could figure illustrator out and be more efficient...it would save me so much time trying to think i know what im doing and how to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defer Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 using the pen tool is a major part of knowing illustrator. learn that and look for tutorial websites. the more you use it, the more you'll learn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joker Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 I know very little about illustrator but I do know how to use the pen tool. Add to that a few tricks and tips from Beardo and I know all I need to know to do what I need to do. I'm not a designer, I don't front to be one... I use the program to, hopefully, one day release a book of digital drawings. Kinda drunk... ignore me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KEFA Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 the internet changes the color a little bit, but its close enough, i guess. too crowded. too tight to the edges. whats all that jazz going on towards the bottom. if its not necessary to the concept of the project then you dont need it. the title at the top could be smaller..let the center image speak louder than the rest. the billboard could be smaller..i see the theme your trying to get accross but i think you could get a better font/s. my two cents.

WOSER Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Just wondering is there a reason why MAC is better to use for design than PC? Ive heard alot of people say so but with no reason why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bojangles Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Anybody wanna give me some live trace pointers? Such as: For color, whats the best amount of colors to use in terms of 0-100+ for the layers. Also, using pixel blur effectivly, etc. I've been using Photoshop for years, I'm just getting to know Illustrator. *One more question: After using live trace, how do I add on to the image more? Does it have something to do with expand? I've tried using the paintbrush and the pen tool but no luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny ballbags Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 yeah... expand makes the vector editable layers.... im pretty sure at least... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tried using the paintbrush and the pen tool but no luck. you should just go in a trace shapes individually. livetrace is kind of like the posterize of illustrator. it takes a lot more time but the end result is way better. plus there is way less anchor points and the file is a fraction of the size. as far as editing already livetraced images, you can expand the image, select the paths and edit with the pencil tool. i hope that helped.

the_um Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Great drawing guys, I'm jealous I'm not at your level yet. I just got illustrator installed, I wanted to get familiar with the program what everyone is talking about. I very familiar with photoshop but when I jump on illustrator it looks simple but the tools are completely complicated it seems. At least for me. Can some give me helpful tips on how to trace a drawing I did, and also do light shading? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I very familiar with photoshop but when I jump on illustrator it looks simple but the tools are completely complicated it seems. At least for me. Can some give me helpful tips on how to trace a drawing I did, and also do light shading? just takes time to get used to. to trace an image: 1 make sure the image is selected (there'll be a line around it the colour of the layer its on) 2 object>live trace>tracing options, and pick one of the defaults, such as 'technical drawing' or 'colour 16' 3 check the preview box. this will show you how the default setting you picked is going to affect your chosen image 4 tweak the settings ('path fitting','minimum area' etc) till you're satisfied with the result and its done. not sure what you mean by light shading, but once its traced and still selected, click on 'expand'. this ungroups all the vectors (lines) and then you can fill them in using live paint.
