Repeat the last step and add 10 more lines as shown.

Select all the lines and circles and from the drop down Line Weight list, select 1 pt.

From the Arrange menu, select Convert Line to Shape.

Will all the shapes still selected, select Combine Shapes > Add Shapes to create one continuous, fillable shape.

HOW TO: To select all the lines and circles at one time, use the Selector Tool (the arrow) to drag a rectangle around all the objects to "marquee select" them.

Using the Text Tool, create a large, bold X using Gill Sans Ultra Bold (or a similar bold font).

There is a file in the Zipped tutorial X.Xar that contains the X shown here. (Or click here to download the file from the Web).

Change the fill color for the circles shape to 20% black.

Center the X over the circles shape using the Alignment menu. (Arrange menu).
