[imfreeareyou]

It is really cool to make objects shine and glow...

[MrJenzy]

soy seguidor de tus tutoriales porque son claros y precisos, eres muy bueno, espero sigas poniendo buenos tuts. Sería bueno algunos sobre los distintos usos de las mascaras. That means: ï'm a fan of your tuts because their precise and clear, ur really good, hope u could keep uploading good tutorials. It'll be great to have one about the different uses of masks on Ai.

hey im new to illustrator and I have cs5. Ive notice in a lot of videos that when u click on an object a box with grips show up and i was wondering how do u get that option? whenever i click something it just highlights the object and puts grips on the object. please help im sure its an option but i have no idea where to look.

[1986maire]

[acirak]

Precisely what I was looking for. I love you.

[Conor332211]

Eh? I dont have the star tool  :S

[jenilea]

Could you link the tutorial for the background ? I cant seem to find it.

[jenilea]

I just have to say this guy is amazing! I have seen 3 of his videos and so far is the only one that has explained illustrator in a way that I can follow along and understand all the things im doing. Really good job sir on your tutorials!

[15killsrs]

i think thats made using the blend tool

[Ambernette]

I love your voice clarity, it is so pleasant to listen to you. :)

[Esoremada]

what's the difference between CS3 and illustrator?

[grivas2007]

CS3 is the newest version of Adobe. For example, Illustrator CS3, Indesign CS3, Photoshop CS3. Before it was like this, Illustrator 10, Illustrator CS and now Illustrator CS3.

[JonnyJC93]

I couldn't edit the symbol by double clicking on star...I have CS2...is this a function of CS3 only...if so...what other options do I have to edit multiple symbols other than clicking on every single path? Thanks.

[tutvid]

The edit a symbol in CS2 you have to redefine the symbol, its easy. Drag the symbol you wish to edit out of the symbols pal. and right click it and hit "Break link to Symbol" then make your edits and select the whole object, then select the symbol you wish to change in the symbols pal. Click the little arrow in the top right of the symbols pal. and hit "Redefine Symbol"

[PaolaPris22]

Thankx 4 your help, i'm from Panama, but, i have 2 ask u something, when i double click :-S appears a window "show lock" but it doesn't give me the option to edit, appears the same when i click "break link to symbol"

[asianbuzz1]

[CamiloSanchez1979]
