@Cellybeans Thanks! :D We'll I almost got the hang sime the last time I posted this ^^

@LadyRyuga If your major requires use of Adobe Illustrator or other graphical programs, then yes, you'll need to use it. Once you get the hang of it, it's a VERY powerful tool any digital artist or graphic designer would do well to have in their arsenal.

Man, this is very time consuming. Is this like maditory to learn this in college. If not, I'm sticking with the brush. And thanks for the tut. I had no clue how to use it al all.

Hi, my proble is the following:

When using the pen tool the anchor points has 2 handles, but they are in a line, how could I make them move separately??

I'm close to finishing my lessons but what did you do to remove the anchor point? I have to study at home so it takes longer if you get stuck on a lesson.

If only my tutors explained this as simply as you did, I wouldn't have found lessons so frustrating. Know that you've helped me out immensely. Cheers.

Do you know anything about Photoshop CS5? Because it doesn't have the little 'No Fill' box and I don't know how to do it!
