Hello
I have a big flame and through the middle is the name of a bar. I vectorized it in AI CS2.
Then I expanded it (I get lost here on wether to expand or live paint - not sure what both do really)
I used the direct selection tool and highlighted the path (guess thats what its called) around the letters and got it removed. However I can't fill the white space left in with any colors.
Tells me to make a live paint bucket group.
But can't seem to get it.
Pics attached. ai rebar.jpg is the one were I am stuck at.
What I am trying to do is fill in the white space with same flame color to fill it in.
Thanks
Mark
