A Little Help for Linty Fresh

One of the blogs/clothing lines that we follow regularly is called Linty Fresh out of Marietta Georgia.  They are an operation that is founded and run by one single guy named Eric Terry.  He does one heck of a job doing it too.

One of the things he is doing to get a bigger following fo his products are videos that show his personality.  His latest video had a few tips for a fan that e-mailed him asking him questions about starting a t-shirt line.  His designs are awesome and his skills are very advanced and you can easily witness this in the tutorial he gave on separating colors for a printer. Since we are a fan of his, we would like to reach out to give him a little tip on separating his colors inside Illustrator (the native program he creates his designs in).

In the video he took his vector artwork from Illustrator and opened it up in Photoshop.  We recently completed a tutorial for VectorTuts that explains the quick process of separating your colors within Illustrator.  This way, he doesn’t have to deal with a raster version of his artwork, nor the pain of taking the design from one program to another.

It is worth giving a try and we hope it helps with Linty Fresh’s well-deserved success.  Click on the picture below to see the tutorial.

    Thanks for the tip! Actually, though, I create all of my designs in Flash MX, not Illustrator. I prefer its interface and have always felt more comfortable using it over AI. Still, this is super valuable info!
