1. Firstly, I went into Ai and used the pen tool to create my base shape. I also used it to create my ellipse for the head, the star, legs, and antenna. I used the draw tool for my wings (which took a lot of patience). I also used the draw tool to create that funky shape next to the star (I have no idea what it is, but I kept it in for fun). For my colors, I went to the fill section and chose any pink colors I could get my hands on. Since this was my first time using Ai, I wasn't too set on custom colors. I also fumbled with the folders of colors and ended up using some pinks from the Flower folder as I thought they were pretty. I created my robot's smile with the pen tool as well. I exported it as a PNG. 

2. Vector graphics are designed with curved points and lines which create a clean, infinitely scalable picture when combined in vector artwork. Vector graphics are made up of those curved points and lines, while raster graphics use pixels. Vectors are good for advertising and marketing while rasters are good for non-line art images. 

3. Photoshop works in pixels whereas Illustrator uses vectors. Photoshop is for imagine editing and Illustrator is used for art. Photoshop is not fit for logo creating but Illustrator is. 

4. I would give myself a 3 as I met the criteria but did not exceed it.
