Creative Tip: Illustrator Graphic Styles & Symbols!
Interested in Adobe Creative Suite? This is a weekly newsletter for creative professionals who use Macs (but Windows users are welcome too). If you're new here, you may want to subscribe via RSS or Email or Twitter for a mix of new tips each week. Thanks for visiting!
Today’s Illustrator webinar was quite an adventure! Ten minutes before the start of class, our Internet connection suddenly dropped (apparently because of a nearby maintenance crew). Luckily we managed to switch over to our slower emergency connection without too much chaos.
Of all days, today was the day that we received a slew of new visitors from two big referral sources. So to make up for today’s Internet glitch, we’re posting the Illustrator Week 7 class free for everyone to enjoy.
In return we ask is that you help encourage more great referrals! Visit Adobe’s Facebook page and Vectip’s Twitter feed to say that you really appreciate them spreading the word about CreativeTechs training:
#1: The Adobe Illustrator Facebook Page! Tell them it was good!
#2: Vectips Twitter Feed – Reply to say thanks for the Tweet!
Quality and quantity both help here. Let’s show our appreciation with some great feedback to them. Thanks!

PS. Anyone interested in signing up for other free weekly classes should visit our training calendar. Or if you are interested in purchasing full recordings of our past courses, visit our course purchase page.

1. May I have a download link to this video, please?
2. I went to purchase the Illustrator Course for the posted $55,
but the pay cart is charging $60. Will this be corrected at check-out or do I get reimbursed $5?
I hate to be a bother. I appreciate your service.

John,
The price of the Illustrator course should have been $60 (I just updated that page). The course is discounted to $50 during the first 5 weeks, and slowly moves up to the final price of $75 during the last 5 weeks of the course.
To make up for the typo, I’d added a special $5-off discount code for everyone reading this blog post. Enter this discount when purchasing:

Thank you very much!

Is there a way for me to download this “free” week into my itunes?
I had so much trouble logging on that a missed quite a lot of this one. I’m grateful that you are willing to post it as a freebie.
These webinars have been quite useful, thanks for doing this.
