I've worked with illustrator for years- but always as just a quick reference- a "lets make type in illustrator quickly" program. I never built a project from the ground up in illustrator.

But, recently I was putzing around for a film project of mine and got inspired- and churned out this:



and after another day, I went through all my thousands of fonts and did text work on the thing



Obviously the color is off due to it being prepped for CYMK printing- but any other tips hints or suggestions?

Don't worry about the images taking too long to load- the big one's only 45k ahh I love simple images.

Also, how do you export an image only within the confines of the artboard? I have to crop it in photoshop and the original is a 27x40poster..
