Nightmares? You poor thing!

Drift will make it all better, promise!
Mind, my tutorial will be for Photoshop only, I haven't played around with AE's pen tool enough to confidently whip up a tutorial on that program - or even know whether one is needed. AE users - are there any weird functions the pen tool in AE has that it doesn't have in regular graphics programs?
I guess the positive feedback means a pen tool guide is needed and welcome at a-m-v.org. I'm swamped with other work right now, but my schedule will be clearing up towards the end of the month, so look for a tutorial around early October. It's pretty much already written, I just need to set up the documents and get the graphics together. I'll probably need a few beta testers to run through a text-only version and make sure it all makes sense, though. Watch for a thread on that in a few weeks. Thanks everybody!
