Okay, so an HTML tutorial was taking way too long and too much effort (haha, I'm lazy), so I just recorded some video in Photoshop. (Just realized I probably could have just recorded an action in Photoshop... oh well.)
I've created three different parts:
1. Pen Tool Usage (general overview)
2. using the pen tool to trace things
3. using the pen tool to create selections/mask objects
The above links are to Photobucket, which converted the videos to flv (flash video format), which are universally compatible (provided the user has Flash installed). It also down-sampled the video, so it may be a bit small. The original videos (avi, encoded with xvid) are also available. |

| Surly just use Illustrator, or some other vector program? |

Ideally, yes, but I haven't gotten around to learning how to use Illustrator.
A Letter sized (default paper size here in the US) document @ 300px/in works in a pinch, though. |

| imo you should stop using photoshop for this kind of stuff, nothing in the above image should ot be vector graphics, and while learning Illustrator is a bit more difficult to get your head around (probably cos people are just used to pixel graphics) it is well worth it. |

for example (and this only took me about 15 minutes to knock up)

I understand the difference between raster and vector graphics (theory).
It's just that I haven't had the time to learn how to use the program (implementation). |
