Here is a requested tutorial, actually requested a few times and I had some fun making this one (as I always do!). Anyway in this video we will look at creating and editing gradients, using blend modes with effects, creating and editing masks, and the click and drag multiple shapes tip using the tilde (`) key. Be sure to stay and watch the entire video as I throw in a bonus tip/ afterthought to the tutorial right at the end. Check out Tutvid.com for more great video tutorials!

  6. Photoshop creates bitmapped graphics, which is good for modifying “photographic” images

    Illustrator is a vector-based drawing program, it creates vector objects with anchor points which are ultimately editable, and never “leave” the structure of the file

    if you need to modify “photographic” images then you should choose Photoshop. if you want to create complicated graphics then Illustrator is the one.

    they share certain capabilities but also complement each other with unique ones.

    I also have a macbook. You can create a similar effect by going to Effect – Distort & Transform – Transform and fiddling around with the copies and angles. Worked for me.

  20. I did noticed when I made a circle while pressing ~ if I go real fast , there are fewer lines. If I make my circle slow while pressing ~, it is more dense with lines. CS5

  21. whaaaaaa, mine don’t look like yours. I got really lost in the masking part. I guess I need to study masking in illustrator. Thanks. Hope you get the payment section of your website up soon. I wanna buy!

  23. can you provide a macro or styles (whatever adobe calls it) so I can just press a button in photoshop or illustrator and creates this button

    thanks

  24. you talk to fast when it comes to masking, it’s really annoying, this would pobably be my last tutorial i follwed by you if it’s not going to change it costs to much time to just rewind al the thing you say in 1 sec
