slapshot Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 I'm thinking the same thing. The outlines only follow the paths that are there. If you want to make a path less jagged, you need to remove some anchor points and adjust the bezier curves.

You just need to smooth the flat spots out of the curves. Quote "One of my concerns is shysters show up and take advantage of people's good will and generosity".

fiasco! Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Can anyone answer my question?A quick Google search of "illustrator mesh jersey swatch" would have saved you however many days you waited for this answer.http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/exchange/inde...p;extid=1045797It was in the second result of the search."God rewards those who do for themselves."

scottysprings Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 I did search but only found literal fabric sample swatches. Thanks though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MVP Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Thanks everyone. I did do that, but it was still a mess.http://www.hotpotatographics.com/concepts/riemen/logo-v5.gifSee how the blue is just...gross? Thanks.That's not bad.But for the top and bottom wavy outlines (excluding the R part), I'm assuming still has too many anchor points. A curved line like that should most likely have 3 anchor points, 2 at either end and 1 in the middle. Then just alter the bezier curves as appropriate.

Thanks.honestly dude, just draw the blue shape by hand. trace over the one you have with some well-placed anchor points and good use of the curve handles. 5 minute job tops. none of this 6 hour b.s.

LucaMaz3 Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 First off, belated thanks to rmered for his answer of my last question.How do you apply a stroke off a stroke (I guess) as seen on all the batting practice caps this year, ie in this picture: http://www.sportslogos.net/logo.php?lo=4rpgkxeeo0usqh9euofaThanks in advance.

andrewharrington Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 don't use a stroke. go to OBJECT > PATH > OFFSET PATH. it looks like a stroke, but it's not limited to be a single width all the way around, and you can add as many outlines as you like in this fashion with ease.

HurricaneDavid Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Quick (I hope) question... I just started using the 3D Extrude and Bevel filter. After applying the filter, when you click on the object, the path still shows up around the pre-filtered object, and therefore doesn't match up with the post-filtered object. Is there any way to change it so the path matches the post-filtered object? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underground Dyer Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 I was digging around and found an old CD that had Illustrator 9.0 on it. I was wondering if it was possible to vector an image on that program and if so, how do I do it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underground Dyer Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Does any know where I can go to find Illustrator cheap? The disc that I dug up a little while back was no good and the program wouldn't load. Or is anyone willing to sell and old version of Illustrator they don't need anymore?I just fool around with making logos and stuff in my spare time so I'm not really looking to make the investment required to get the newest version. If anyone is interested you can PM me or e-mail me at: undergrounddyer@yahoo.comThanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
