There are some great new enhancements to the Appearance panel in Illustrator CS4 that will consolidate your workflow and save users a lot of time. For instance, it’s now possible to make color and stroke adjustments right in the appearance panel, as well as add new fills, strokes, and effects. The new graphic styles panel has new abilities for combining and previewing effects.
















Very cool Cheryl!
Good tutorials! Keep them coming as much as you can. We need more tutorials in illustrator because there are way too much photoshop, but not enough on illustrator.
Thanks for the cool tutorials!

Looks like Illustrator is finally growing up! Not a moment too soon. Nice efficient tutorial, Cheryl. Thanks!
cool Cheryl – I hadnt even noticed this! Quicker is always good! – thanks!
After listening to several of the tutorials, I just want to say that I’m generally impressed with the quality. But I am particularly impressed with Cheryl’s pacing (as well as RC’s), i.e, fast, informative, and “no nonsense.” Keep up the good work, Cheryl.
thanks you sooo much
way better than sitting in the classroom and trying to stay awake.
Option click doesn’t work to add second graphic style. Can anyone help
