Best online school to learn Illustrator 101? Considering a site called eclasses, but I was wondering if anyone had other recommendations on a good online school for Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop.

Seconding Lynda. I've taken several Photoshop and 3ds Max classes from them and would definitely recommend them to my friends.

3rd lynda, especially the Deke McClelland course is awesome. He's covering both photoshop and Illustrator and soon there will be added expert level Illustrator course by him as well.

As a graphic designer, let me give you this tip: Learning to use the pen tool (bezier curves) is one of the most important things. Skill with the pen tool will also help you in Photoshop.

Good luck!
