Nice ones artjrk and keekeeree! Hope you don't mind I uploaded them to the xp.no community for perusal?

I think ART JRK put the P back in, good imprrovement. And justt to show I messed about as well: It was not put together with the outmost care for detail finishing, but you get …

Actually I think erik's original design isn't too off track. This reminds me of a college project in a letterform & type class I had to take. This particular project involved …

Try opening the file directly with photoshop. You can convert to pixels directly in Illustrator, but an eps, ps or pdf file will all open in photoshop with more flexibility. I sus…

SunSeeker, I appreciate the suggestion!! However, when I do this, it recognizes the file as a generic pdf and removes any blend modes...It returned the text ot it's original …

I would next try to save as eps with flatten transparency. Maybe as version 6 or 7 then try to open that in Photoshop Good Luck ------------------ Sunseeker Has Left The Buildin…

In illustrator 9 you can rasterize transparancy and effects. Then just > file>>save for web and you can choose JPG or GIF in different qualities. Once saved th…

L'ignorante, I thank you for your tips as well...They will come in handy in the future...Again, thank you. -c u rr y.

One tip on the save for web out of illustrator - Be sure to clean up any stray points you have floating around before you save it. Any element on the artboard becomes a part of the…

Illustrator 9 lets you save as a Photohop file also, with the layers/transparency intact & editable type (if it's on it's own layer). I thinks it's under the Export menu item? …

I had major problems with the export to PhotosShop feature until the 9.0.2 revision. Now it works like a champ. A work around I found for the image clipping is to get the type to…

I'm big on graphcis, animation, web designing, and anything else you can imagine with Photoshop, Flash, and 3D Studio Max. Now my question, like the subject, is the Mac G4 the way …

Absolutely. The G4 is THE platform to work with such things as those on your list. You'll wonder how you ever got along without one...

I'm surprised you haven't switched yet...

Thanks. I'm gonna look into it more, but can you give me any information on actually why its better? Does the software run better and things of that nature. I'm willing to switch, …

Have a look at Apple�s article on the Duality Star Wars fan film. It doesn't answer all of your questions but it might fill in a few blanks. -Rick

The G4 has a special little subset called the Velocity Engine. Some applications, like Photoshop, are specially designed to take advantage of this. Thereby they become faster. That…

First, Max is not a Macintosh application. I don't think 3DStudio will ever make a Mac version. Entry and smaller applications are available for 3D, Adobe has a product that may n…
