I drew a dog! And a cat. In Illustrator!

This is what happens when I have free time in Fundamental Web Design.
I start messing with random programs.
This thing has its merits–like making calligraphic header pictures for the cooking web site I’m writing for my mom–but I can see where Illustrator would be an absolute pain in the butt to use. It kept trying to replace the lines I’d drawn with other lines, and the eraser is weird. I guess you get used to it, but the same can be said for, say, Flash… and I’m just about sure that program was designed so that the people who could actually use it (the creators, and the people they like) would have good job security.
I’m just fine when you stick me in front of Notepad++ and tell me to write my own bloody HTML, but once you try to get me onto a program that’s supposed to make my life easier, I have no brain whatsoever. Like with Flash. Or Dreamweaver. I keep wanting to correct its code.Even with tables, I’d rather write my own. Speaking of which, a program that lists tables as one of your options for structure in a web page needs to be destroyed.
Anyway. Pictures! And once we get this site onto the actual Internet, I’ll link to it here so you can see it in all its awesomeness.
