Check the new Vintage Packs on the vectorian website
The revamp started when a customer noticed some of the frame borders for Illustrator had little gaps between the borders and corners (see examples below). Being a perfectionist myself I knew I could clean these imperfections up. That lead me to Brian Fuelleman, an Illustrator expert and a Vintage Vectors addict just like me.
Brian volunteered to improve the frame borders. He did an amazing job! He checked each one, fixed problems, added corners, improving a lot of aspects. In addition he gave me a lot of good advice which lead to improvements and a higher level of excellence in other areas of my pack.
When Brian finished his work I thought it would take just a few more days to complete the updates, polish up some other details and ship the new version.
Boy was I wrong!
My work was just beginning. It took me weeks to achieve this new version.
Why? As I made improvements in every aspect of this pack I saw the opportunity to add more and more stuff and add more value to the pack.
So what's new you may be asking...
