So I started a new site recently (meaning that I started a site a few months ago and completely forgot about it).

I also wanted to get some experience with Wordpress, and thus The Best Tutorials was born.

You will take an image of a skull and an image of a girl and combine them. This tutorial requires intermediate level skills.

I was determined to find an a use for the Flare Tool in Illustrator (why is it there, anyway?). Here is what I came up with.

You will be making some interesting graphics using the Flare Tool and the Transform Effect.
