Running Time: 2 hours, 05 minutes
Overview
This exciting new video series shines a light on the new features added to Adobe Illustrator CS3. For anyone who is making the move from Illustrator CS2 or earlier versions to the CS3 this is an essential set that helps you to understand and make the most of your upgrade.
Detailed Video Descriptions
1 - Introduction (Running Time - 1:38)

3 - The New Welcome Screen (Running Time - 5:25)
Here we will look at the changes to the Illustrator welcome screen, which adds to usability. It's sometimes the little things that make all the difference.
4 - Document Profiles (Running Time - 4:09)
In this video, we take a look at the new document profiles. This makes life easier when first setting up documents. Your print documents use print standards such as CMYK at 300 DPI, Web RGB, Film and video proportions and so on.
5 - Panels (Running Time - 10:58)
One of the main overhauls in Illustrator CS3 has been the user-interface. In this video, we explore how to use this excellent new interface design. These new panels are a great help with multiple ways to configure and display panels to save valuable screen real estate.
6 - Live Color (Running Time - 11:36)
Here we get to grips with the new Live Color feature. We look at the Live Color dialog box and learn to understand what all the features are and what all the fuss is about.
7 - Changing Color in Artwork (Running Time - 11:17)
Carrying on from the previous video we learn how to edit color using the Live Color feature. This is a practical application of the system that we discussed in the previous movie.
8 - Color Panels (Running Time - 13:15)
In this video, we'll look at the changes made to the Swatches Panel, such as the addition of groups and we will also look at the new Color Guide Panel.

Here you will learn how to use Live Paint with the addition of the cursor swatch preview feature that was added to Illustrator CS3.
10 - Easier to find anchor points on Direct Selection Tool (Running Time - 3:48)
It has always been like playing the party game, pin the tail on the donkey, when you are trying to select an anchor point using the Direct Selection Tool. Now that is no longer a problem because Illustrator highlights the points as you get close by.
11 - Crop Area Tool (Running Time - 4:51)
Discover how this new Tool allows you to define areas that you want to save as a separate file such as when exporting for the web.
12 - Eraser Tool (Running Time - 8:06)
The Eraser Tool is one new addition that I have been waiting for about 15 years. Learn how to make the most of this great new addition to the program
13 - Isolate Selected Groups (Running Time - 10:32)
One of several new features which draws its inspiration from Flash. For old time Illustrator users this may be confusing at first, but once you understand you will see the benefits in terms of productivity.
14 - Libraries (Running Time - 4:36)
In this video, we look at the improvements made to libraries. This subtle but intelligent improvement is indicative of the Illustrator CS3 upgrade as a whole.
15 - Integration with Flash (Running Time - 10:49)
In this video, you will learn to utilize some of the amazing new advances that Adobe has made in integrating Illustrator with Flash. This is one of the most exciting new aspects to this particular upgrade.

Stop settling for $500 to $1000 web design projects and start making some real money. More importantly, start building a real business. You know, the kind that will allow you to take some time off and still have money coming in. The kind of business where you are building an asset that can be sold at some point in the future.
If you are tired of working long hours grinding away in front the computer just to make the same money as a Starbucks barista, then you will be very interested in the following information.
Each week I host a webinar where I show designers the exact skills you need to develop to take your business to the next level. For some, that means being able to go from part-time to full-time. How nice would it be to trade in your day job for a successful business where you call the shots. For others that is means getting your very first client.
I even show the pros how to grow their business. Just last week we had a guy that fit in that top 1% category. He is charging $30,000, on the low end, for a website. He was making more money than almost all of the other 22 attendees combined.
I opened his eyes to some new ideas, one of which has the potential to double his already successful business. That is the thing about the top 1% - they are always anxious to learn something new. He could have easily passed on the opportunity to attend the webinar based on his success, but there he was soaking up new ideas to grow his business.
How To Attend The Webinar
The webinar is a 1 hour presentation plus a live Q and A session. Most of these sessions last two hours or more.
