Adobe Illustrator rocks!

We all have to make banners for our poster session on Friday. The title banners are always a pain in the arse, since most programs don't make it obvious how to set them up, if it's possible at all. Then, if you can set it up, most of the time your letters get clipped because the margins are set up that way.

Well, I played aroud with Illustrator and now we can make banners! Make a nice big template, tile the images without margins, type your text and align it, and voila! Banner!

The other folks in the lab are relieved; title banners are the most aggravating part of the poster. Minkui and Chuanqing were all over the little lesson.

One more hurdle crossed!

So you're using Illustrator? Then you should feel more comfortable working with Photoshop--the interface has many similarities, and things *work the same* even if Illustrator and Photoshop are two very different programs.

Good luck with the project!

Good luck with the project Arafel. What are you making a poster of?

Yup Illustrator is good that way, since it's vector art you can scale the art work up and down as much as you like and never worry about resolution, it'll look the way it looks on screen. Illustrator is perfect for making big stuff like banners and posters.

Good luck with the rest of the poster and the presentation. :)
