Photoshop :: Circles Recreate In Illustrator
May 18, 2007
I did this in photoshop, and it was a raster image, but i want to do it in illustrator because i need to enlarge it many times without having to make it lose quality and I just want it as a vector, and would rather have it done in illustrator because I am already doing the rest of the picture in illustrator. If you guys would please let me know how to do this picture in illustrator? I tried making every circle and fixing the opacity, but it took forever and didnt even look right! In photoshop, I picked a solid circle brush, and in the brush drop down bar thing i went to "Other Dynamics" and put "Opacity Liter" and "Flow Liter" to 100%. I just would like to know if theres a way to do it in Illustrator.

I frequently find myself recreating gradients created in illustrator using Photoshop. however, even when using the exact settings for color, opacity, and location, they never come out the same. is there some rule of thumb or some logic as to how those two applications create gradients and how to better approximate them?

I'm trying to make a logo. Circular logo with an inner ring maybe 4 px wide and 15 px inside the rim of the outer circle.
Basically I want a blue circle with a yellow inside ring. What's the best way of doing this? The only thing i can think of is: creating a blue circle marquee, and then another (trying to estimate a new circle size and change the color) that is yellow, and then making another smaller blue circle inside the new one. That's just ugly.
I tried the edit/stroke but that just gave me a stroke around the outer circle; it didn't put a ring inside the circle 15 px down.
Also I tried to contract the original circle by selecting it, then Modify/contract. That's got me a selected ring, inside the circle. Now how in the world do I make that little ring yellow? It just remains selected and I can't seem to find a way to color it.

I have a problem with drawing small circles in Illustrator, because when I export them they are not "smooth". The edges seem like truncated. Have a look here with "Pixel preview" turned on:
And now, setting an offset of +0.5px for X and Y, the circle is how I want it to be:
Why? Is there a way to "smooth" the circle?

I'm trying to do following action using CS6 SDK:
1 Covert the selected path into chained circles
2 Fill the selected shapes with circles
All circles are of equal size, and cannot be overlapped each other.

Here is the image I am working on:
I need to know how to make it look like this:
There are two things going on in the origina: the S-shaped semi-transparent overlay, and a linear gradient that lightens on the top and bottom and darkens in the middle. Also, note the transparent space between the "outline shape" and the inner circles.
So - two things. 1) How do I apply a gradient to the entire shape, and 2) put the all-white overlay on top (overlay should be confined to the shape as well).

how to draw a circle with its center at the starting cursor location of the drag motion? It's given that the ellipse shape tool is chosen.Neither simultaneously depressing the shift or control key concurrent with the drag motion accomplishes this objective. any simple way to draw concentric circles each of which has a randomly chosen diameter and varying stroke width? The polar grid tool isn't relevant to this objective.

I draw a circle and then want another smaller circle to snap to the path. This would produce 100% accurate smooth curve.
I added a line that snapped to an anchor point I added on the large circle. I was hoping to snap the smaller circle to the anchor point, but how can you do this without guessing where to add anchor points on the circle? What if I want to change them?
Right now I have snap to point on and snap to grid off. Align to pixel grid is also off.
method for drawing and conecting tangents?

Working with scientific figures containing circles, squares, etc in CS4. How can I resize many circles to be 1.5 by 1.5 mm, for example, after they have been skewed a bit to make the entire graph the same size as adjacent figures? In other words, I import the graph from elsewhere and to touch it up I have to resize it a bit. Resizing the whole figure distorts the circle to an ellipse and I want to turn it back into a circle. Takes too long to select each shape and indicate the size.

I have two overlapping circles with 2px solid stroke. Now, I'd like to change the two parts of the circles which are now within the circles to a dashed line. But this creates only parts of the lines in dashed mode. Here, I used the Pathfinder's "Divide".

So I keep seeing this method of design on sites like dribbble or behance but I don't know how to do it!
Here's an example: Basically a bunch of circles are used to create this awesome shape and design. I have a general idea on how to use the pathfinder tool and I have used it a lot in the past, but how do you snap circles together with smart guides? It seems that the smart guides only snap based on 90 or 45 angles and don't snap edges of objects together unless there are two anchors.
Here's an example: I want to use the curves from 2 circle shapes to make a complex path. But I can't get the two paths to snap together
Ultimately to create something like the raindrop image above. I want to use the perfect curves on circles to create more complex shapes but since the paths do not snap together, I'm just eyeballing it to be close enough to do something with the pathfinder tool.

Ever wondered how to perfectly fill an outline with touching circles? I did -- after seeing the example image in Solving design effect - image made of perfectly arranged circles.
It took me a while to get the proper calculations, but -- Here It Is! A Javascript, written for Illustrator CS4 (it might work on other versions as well), that fills a selected outline with circles. Download zipped script from my site: [URL] ...., unpack if necessary, and put it in your Illustrator Scripts folder to make it available the next time you run Illy, or anywhere else (you have to browse for it each time).
Select any path -- but no live text; you have to convert it to outlines and select each character in turn. Then run the script.
It displays a simple dialog, where you can set a maximum and minimum circle size as a percentage of the selected object size. In addition, you can select either a plain basic color, or select any of your current Swatch Groups; in that case, each of the circles are filled with a random color from that group.
The script may take a while to run. Usually, only a couple of seconds for a simple rectangle, but it may run into minutes for objects with lots of curves and/or holes. I didn't have the guts to run it on a vectorized world map, to recreate Mario "Quasimondo" Klingemann's Foam World Map; but, in theory? Possible.
This image only took a few minutes:

I'm looking to recreate this color toning effect in my own images but I can quite put my finger on it, I've tried almost every possible split toning combo in light room and countless numbers of curves and gradient adjustments in Photoshop and color layers with all of the blending modes, masks, everything.But I still can't get my image to look like these ones. More specifically I'm looking for those brownish-red shadows/ darks with those warmish skin tones. URL....

I would like to re-create the effects used in this image. Would it be possible to create this in Photoshop or do I need 3D modeling software?
I have been trying but I can't seem to get my shapes to look that three-dimensional. Also, how do I get these types of effects with color and texture? The color effect that is used in the triangle I would especially like to replicate.

I'm working on recreating my uncles Marketing Campaign, Vinyl Decals, business cards the lot! So I'm looking for the recreation of the logo itself.
It's attached so how I can recreate the shadow all around "patco". It's really sharp on the edges of the shadow and I'm just not able to recreate it. I tried drop shadows and that didn't work. How to do a wrap without the top bending either.
