My very first time

[Excruciating]

Illustrator that is,

Well, what to say, this is my very first image with Illustrator, I know it sucks and so forth, but here is is:

I know, you'd propperly say this was meaningless posting it here and all, but I also wanted to ask where I can find some good tutorials?
I tried google (of course) but you know google, you never get the best results.

Leavs is very hard to start off with, I think you've done it really well.

Thanks, that really makes you want to continue.

I am going to make a tribal-ish tattoo in illustrator since it's very limited what you can do in photoshop I think.
(cirlce > fill> circle > cut > and wow!)

It's still very different from photoshop actually, at least I'm all back at crawling when I try to use shortcut keys

Okay, so here is my second try:

[johneva]

WOW!

Yeah thats well cool fella.

Hmm, it's a bit unfair that the lines is so ... erm .. unclean...

Any help on this issue?
When I try using the function "Save for Microsoft" all I can save it as is .png file.
I looks great in illustrater though.
