Adobe Illustrator is a program used to create vector images. These images will then be used for logos, promotional uses or even personal work, both in print and digital form.
So what is Adobe Illustrator used for?
It is typically used to create illustrations, charts, graphs, logos, diagrams, cartoons of real photographs, and more. While the program may be difficult to understand initially, the final product will be well worth the learning.

Still not using vector images?
If you decide you no longer want it to be a vector, you can easily convert it into a bitmap or jpeg image. Unfortunately, illustrations that are created as a a raster image cannot be converted to vector images after the fact. If you’re unsure whether or not you’ll need to resize your image later on, it would be wise to create a vector image to begin with. Another perk is that vector files are actually smaller than their raster counterparts.

TUTORIALS:


I wish someone would add information here, or even to show their creations like banners, logos, or anything else.

Here we go, Ranks Image.

I created this shield considering to contribute to the design of our website. I'd like to talk about what shapes or what colors are better for them.

I like the shield but I don't think the colors fit our site. The drop shadow is unnecessary and lowers the quality of the overall image. Other than that, we'd just need to figure out what to put in the shield, the M doesn't really describe the rank at all.

For the legendary family member rank i was trying to stick with the gold theme we're currently using. Inner will be silver and lower bronze.
