Hallo:

For that kind of job I recommend outsourcing to a graphic artist. I do not
know your capabilities, but creating professional-level graphics and
creating film for color output is a specialty . . . particularly the
creation part. (As I said, I don't know your capabilities). In the past I
have worked with my marketing departments (different employers) to select
and establish relationships with local graphic artists and the resulting
book covers have always been, well, splendid.

To answer your question, or, more precisely, not to, checkout
http://www.i-us.com. These folks should be able to help you along. You are
speaking of different graphics packages that have different purposes: vector
versus bitmap graphics but i-us should have forums to answer your questions
regardless of the graphics format (or formats) you use.

Good luck!

P.S. Sorry that my skills are pretty rusty with the graphics packages . . .
I'm pretty much stuck in bitmap graphic mode, and a pretty boring bitmap
mode at that <g>.
