I know we haven’t been around in some time. That’s going to change in the next couple of weeks. You can expect a fresh new round of Flash, Photoshop, and Illustrator tutorials, free vectors and textures, and some cool portfolio stuff. Hope to see you soon.

No matter what you think of his politics, U.S. presidential cantidate Barack Obama has a pretty incredible marketing and design machine behind him. One strong example of this is his “O” logo. Simple, attractive, symbolic, it’s undeniably an effective logo.
Another aspect of the Obama campaign that is attractive to a lot of American’s is the grass-roots, everybody can be involved attitude that they’ve been trying quite successfully to convey. In honor of that attitude, and just in time for the Democratic Convention, I thought I would show some really helpful Illustrator techniques by making the Obama logo. In this tutorial, we’ll be going over the Pathfinder, Envelope Warps, Opacity Masks, and Gradient Meshes. And we’ll use a drop shadow!
What’s that? You don’t think we can do it? I have three words for you my friend.
Yes. We. Can.
Attention: Our Relief vector pack is up on a really awesome vector image site called Vecteezy. We’re pretty happy to be in the company of the other designers that are featured there. Head on over and vote for us if you appreciate what we do.
