While working on one of our many assignments, I wanted to figure out a way to texturize a logo in Illustrator. Thus far, I've only experimented with grunge textures in Photoshop, but the Brits at the Spoon Graphics Blog gave me plenty of help with my Illustrator endeavors! Not only were there 5+ tutorials covering different aspects of the design I needed, but Chris Spooner created a Vector Texture Freebie Pack that I could use and someday emulate on my own.
There are tons of detailed articles, and even more free packs that are really helpful! The tutorials are easy to read, and include great pictures to help you follow along. I feel like there are always tutorials online, but the amount of comprehensible tutorials is far more limited. If you need help with an effect, or creating a specific type of graphic, I'm sure Spoon Graphics has it! I know it will definitely be my first stop the next time I'm having trouble with something!
