Swirling Rainbows: Illustrator Tutorial!

Check this video out at Hi-Res here: http://www.tutvid.com/tutorials/illustrator/tutorials/swirlingRainbow.php

Have you ever seen those looping, swooshing, swirling rainbow graphics used in all kinds of graphics ranging from logos, and sketches, to grungy and retro illustrations? Well we are going to create one of them in Illustrator and learn how to export it to a program such as Photoshop as a samrt object to utilize it as a smart object so we can both retain vector scalability while giving us the option to use Illustrator to edit the graphic for us!

That is the longest way I've seen to create a rainbow! Why not just create an Art Brush from a few squares and apply it to a path?

Good job though.
