You really made my day today ( I am going to stop by here on a regular bases, from now on ). First of all, thank you for sharing all those things that take you hours, days and months to figure them out yourself. I hope one day you'll be teaching classes at college of your choice, if that's what would make you really happy. Sorry for my English, hope you understand. Yoy have an excellent taste level, and I would always ask you for a judgment for any of my work - don't worry, I'm not going to do that. All the best to you.

You don?t lose the option of expanding when you go off and do other things after creating the compound path; you can always click back on the compound path and the expand button comes back. You can also double click on the compound path to be taken ?inside? it so you can fiddle with the positioning of it?s elements. In this way, you don?t actually have to commit to the expanded path until you are really sure it is what you want. I don?t understand all this fuss about expanding the compound path right away.

You're doing an awesome job sharing what you know and helping the net to become a prettier place. I totally agree w/you that college design program often don't teach one the necessary skills for a design job. I'm taking classes right now at a pretty good ranked art school, but my professors don't even work in design, they're career academics. Not even my "design internship" really taught me anything about design itself, I was fetching coffee for free and had to "fight" with other interns just to get the chance to make copies for the designers. Most of what I've learned is by Googling and reading online tutorials put out by generous designers like you who share their knowledge. You've put on some really good and essential tutorials. For ex, I've spent GOD knows how much time on finding a good tutorial that explains how to create those abstract swirls and patterns and I finally found one here. Keep up the Good Work! I know I'll spread the word about your blog to every aspiring designer that I know. And THANK YOU! hey Bittbox:

You really have done it well and admirably continuing with it. I am a designer and use Illustrator about 80% of my day. I consider myself an expert in Illustrator and train a lot of people from beginners to professionals. You have techniques and suggestions I really appreciate. Thank you for the time and effort you give to us. I know by my own schedule that there is a lot of time you spend sharing with us.

It gives us a way to express ourselves and to get pages up, content up, thoughts up, etc. I am very frustrated by tcaec, antiquated methods of online media nad he lack of how to in web design, the lack of pratical knowldge, insead i find that univ and olleges teach the most arcaec methods for design and online media. For example, I started a web design program only to get frustrated by the coding aspect, b/c i saw the design aspect being totally mentioned as an after thought or as a Photoshop beginners class. I kow that xhtml, css and all that are a huge part of web design, but what if I am bad a t coding? Can't I be good at layout and leave that to someone else? This is a huge frsutration for meb/c I know that I could be a good designer as far as web sites go, but CS and flash, xhtml are overwhelming. There need to be a hands on guide to just design in my opnion. Sorry if my ramling seems a litle elementary to som of you. It's just the truth. please free to drop by my my blog and share insights, stories and help build my community. Thanks! I think that web design is so crucial to the evolvement of ideas.
