I see periodic posts from members how who want to learn to use Illustrator or use it better. Here is a video Adobe just posted showing how to create a flame icon in the app. It is a good method that can be a very useful skillset.
Also, Astute Graphics is a great company that produces some very helpful plugins for Adobe Illustrator. Including a couple free ones.
Gotta love tutvid!
By the way, I just submitted a class today on Illustrator basics, should appear in a few days. /ShamelessSelfPromotion
When is the class? I don’t want to take up a spot, but would be interested in auditing/assisting. This is an area that I have considered giving back to the community, just not 100% confident on my teaching skills.

I doubt the class will fill, so feel free to sign up when it hits the calendar.
I’d be happy if you could give me notes on my teaching!
I’ve been using illustrator for about 15 years on a daily basis, so putting together a lesson plan on the basics has been kind of tricky since the basic stuff is 2nd nature now.
