Cool Logo Effects in Adobe Illustrator

Very cool and simple tutorial, and what an effect you get!!! GREAT STUFF

Cory you are the best. I have been learning from you in photoshop for a while and I love it. Now its time for me to learn illustrator. Ive been playing around in it but I get frustrated. So I searched for your tuts. Bingo Here you are. You dont take it for granted that we all are old hands at this and expain every step.
Well now to the point. How do you keep the outer points selected? I selected a few and then go to select more and the last ones I selected just before turn white (I supose they unselect) How do I keep them all selected around the ellipse? Thanks
Great job!!!

I’m using CS3 trying to do your new step-by-step “Designing With Flair” from march/ april 2009 and reached a point where I run into problems with most Layers/ Photoshop Magazine tutorials, that being one step in each walk through that doesn’t work. I’m looking for the “dot pattern vector pack” and don’t have it. Is this something I need to pay extra for? I run into these problems a lot with these walk-throughs where there is one step that doesn’t make any sense, and I don’t know if it is due to the “instructor’s” own personal work space short-cuts being over looked vs. the default settings or what, but this brings lots of frustration on my end when everything is going well until i hit that one snag that keeps me from completing the exercise. Can you help me on this?

Thanks Corey! You explained the mesh tool with simple elegance.

belo tutorial … muitas coisas se da pra fazer !

I am using the Direct Selection Tool (White Arrow) in Illustrator CS3. In the beginning of the video tutorial and I am selecting the outer points and every time I go to select another outer point(s) the other blue ones that I have selected are tuning white again. Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Josh, in CS3 you might need to hold down Shift as you click each point.

To Josh and Phinesse, if you want to select multiple points using the direct selection tool (the “hollow” or “white arrow”) press and hold the shift key while selecting the each vector (it is not necessary to continue holding the shift key when not selecting a point).

Gosh, that explanation of the mesh tool is great! I can’t wait to go back to class on Monday and show my instructor that. heheh Not to mention sending all my classmates to Layers for tutorials.

Hold down the shift key while selecting to pick all of the outside points.

You have to hold the shift key down while selecting the next point, otherwise, each time you click, you deselect the previous point.

Great tutorial! Easy to follow and very cool.

i finnaly understood about the mesh tool…

Where are the answers to questions posted. I’m in CS3 and can’t find the “dot pattern vector pack” either. Is it only in CS4? Thanks, Deborah

Hi Deborah,

CS3 doesn’t have the dot pattern vector pack. Corey does have a workaround for this that’s too long to post in the comments section and too short for its own tutorial. If you contact me via email, I’ll forward those instructions to you.
