Where Web Meets Illustrator

Amidst the article and video watched about setting up a web page through Illustrator, I have learned a few things.

First, always start in RGB Mode.

Always use layers.

Format text with the paragraph and text style panels.

Use paragraph or character styles panels to quickly format text.

Create effects, save them as graphic styles, and you can apply them to text, buttons, and shapes.

Use the symbols panel.

Make design clean and simple.

Apply an opacity masks with a gradient to make a progressive version of the picture that looks sweet.

Stroke gradients.

Grids.

Last but not least, always be pixel-precise.

Woohoo
