This is a great technique to have on hand, thanks a bunch. I’ll be sure to use this often.

You can create something that has the same effect as a stroke by putting multiple fills on the text and using the offset path effect.

Hi Rype, I still don’t know how to use intersect very well in CS4. So what I did was copying the original shape and add it to another shape. After I intersect it, I drag it back to the original shape ) sounds dumb.

Try Grouping the teeth shape and if you are using CS4 hold down Alt/Option when you press the Intersect button. Let em know if that helps.

I’ve been trying to create a super happy octopus on vector.tutplus.com, but I got stuck in step 6. I’ve followed the instruction. however, every time I tried to intersect the shape of the mouth & teeth, all the shapes are gone, except half the teeth.Help
