I've used illustrator a bit for drawing pictures, but never for web graphics... I need to create some tabs (for the top of a webpage). Maybe illustrator isn't the most common tool for this but it's the one I can use the most.
Anyone know of any tutorials that might be useful (i've not found any) or have any tips for making the tabs look nice (e.g. what effects to use)
I need to make some artwork that might be viewed in both RGB and printed with CMYK. I know I can switch the color mode after making the artwork, however, I'm concerned with color shifting when changing from RGB to CMYK or the other way around. How do you design something that you can both print and display on screen without compromising the colors?

Is there any reason to not layout the whole composition in AI and instead do it in PS? Is it just a matter of preference or are there strong reasons to go one way or the other?

If it does bleed to the edges, do I only need to make sure that the artwork on my artboard touches the edges of my artboard? OR is there something else that needs to be done?

The board would include six seperate sections with topics such as: purpose, one-year plan, core values, community events, etc... My question for the forum is, would adobe Illustrator be the best program for this purpose? I have been a adobe creative cloud user for almost two years now and I have access to all of the programs on the cloud service. I thought I could just do it through photoshop as well but Illustrator came first to mind. What do you think?
View 3 Replies View RelatedSo I am desinging a business card for a company I work for. The company we are sending them off too obviously needs to have the bleed and trims marks. The only thing I can't figure out is how do I make the bleed marks visible to them? When I print the document it shows me the trim marks but since I have a white background, it looks as if there is no border. Should I add a border to the actual Artboard?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI was designing some cartoon character, but I've noticed something, I'm working on CMYK and I've got some black lines on the top layer, and some red and violet color shapes in the bottom layer for the background color, but like if the colours weren't mixing allright in the edges, like some kind of jagged white fine edge and I don't know how to get rid of it.
Here are some jpeg of the problem: [URL] ....
Perhaps it's not as strong as I see it on the CMYK Illustrator vector, but it's pretty annoying on the final result. How to get rid of these things?
issues switching layout tabs by clicking on the tabs?
Occasionally, clicking the Model or other layout tab results in no action, as if I'm not clicking on it.
All other controls (within and external to C3D) function normally so it's not a mouse hardware issue.
It will usually correct itself if I "restore down" the main application window, then maximize it again.
The -layout command is a workaround too.
I am having issues with tabs lining up for a current menu project I am working on. Im using paragraph styles and character styles as well. All prices shown have the same styles and sould justify right,but there are odd gaps.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI've updated to the latest version of Photoshop that finally gives us retina support.. it does look beautiful but is it about to make our life harder? I design for both web and print and decided to test it out.
I created a standard document 1024x768/72, i was given a tiny canvas on screen, definitely not the size it should be, my understanding is that if i save this and load it on non-retina it will be the correct size?
So, if i want to create the same document, but also the correct size on retina, what should the dimensions be? Do i simply double the pixels, increase the resolution? Am i going to be forced to save all graphics twice?
We're headed down a path that requires adding new steps to our work flow and i'm not quite sure what that is yet.
I need to create a few mockups of an Intranet site for a project, the task can be done in HTML and CSS or using an art package.
Ideally I want to be able to change the colour of text, background colour or maybe border colours throughout the site at the change of a hex value as you would on a stylesheet.
Is it possible to group text/assign styles in Photoshop so that any changes will occur throughout my PSD file, in a similar way to styles in a Word doc?
How do you guys go about making mockups? Art package or CSS and HTML?

This problem will probably be very simple for a lot of you. Unfortunately, I'm not as adept at Photoshop as I should, or would like to be.
I want to design a postcard for my business, using several photos in a scattered arrangement on the card, with my business name on.
I'm using Elements 5 and have played around with the "create a greeting card" function. It comes close to what I want to do, but it does seem rather basic. As Photoshop always seems have more than one way of doing something, I was wondering if there is more effective way of going about it, buried in Elements somewhere. Or perhaps there is another, (preferably cheap) program that is better at this. One thing I would like to do is to change the background colour on the card and not have to rely on the background templates offered in the special effects palette. Ultimately, I will be getting them professionally printed, so I will need to supply the printer with the art work in the appropriate form.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm interested in using PS to design tool icons for application toolbars. This question really relates to using PS for very small images (say less than 32x32 pixels in size). Are they any tips for working with small images in PS that you can share?

I've tried working on it 2400mm x 1800mm (300 dpi) the image size is too large. 1.6gb? This is for tarpaulin printing. Also what would be the best format if I will save it as flat image? ( PNG,JPG )

I have an upcoming job which requires me to design a series of icons for screen usage (32x32 pixels). I've had plenty of experience designing icons and logos for print, and would appreciate some tips on the method for designing them for screen.
Is the process just a matter of designing the logos in a vector program, importing them into a 72dpi PS file (32x32 pixels), and then optimising the file in Image Ready? (batch process?).
