I got Illistrator and after effects for christmas, but I've been avoiding putting the time into them to learn. From just stuffing around Illistrator is very daunting to me, so if anyone knows of any good tutorials, it would be greatly appreciated

It's your friend.

Tried youtube, but it's mostly advanced stuff and someof the tuts are done by people who speak so softly you'd need to be a dog to hear them lol

have you seen this?

No I haven't... thank you very much

I.T is so broad that u dont even have to rely on people these days man. Get out there. Internet is more than enough!

and if you did buy it it comes with tutorials on there. only thing with youtube is that the people on there aren't teaching you what you're doing and why. they are just showing you how to do their things. But that thread and the tut's on the program are more than enough to get you started.

I'm thinking maybe I should just stick to PS...
